Should I replace it with a Focotar-2?). Want to make blowups from 50 x 60 cm (app. 19 x 24 ") and up to 100 x 70. In the old days it was all Tri-X but I now decided to try out Tmax 400 which I heard can behave a bit like Tri-X (as far as details in the shades go), minus the grain, with Paterson fx 39 developer and a longer dev time. Some experimenting ahead. Any good advice appreciated. /Per On Saturday, October 12, 2002, at 07:26 PM, Mark Rabiner wrote: > Per Claesson wrote: >> >> Hi everybody, >> >> Since I am fairly new around here I thought I'd introduce myself.
