Subject: [Leica] OT: Patterson FX-50 Experiences

I'm trying out FX-50 and I have had some mixed results. One roll, Pan-F 
roll film (in a Mamiya 645), came out beautifully, with a nice (tamer) 
contrast range, good densities, and manageable highlights and shadows - 
just what I was hoping for. Then I tried Delta 100 and FP4 (in the M7) 
and in both case the density was overall really low. Even the leader 
was not nearly as dense as I would expect. I am following the standard 
mix, dev times, temps, and agitation. Same water (bottled) and 
developing can (steel). Any ideas? Has anyone else found similar or 
different results?

Thanks,
