It gives good shadow detail, smooth tonality and nearly non-existent grain. -- Keep working millions on welfare depend on you -------------------

Or perhaps because they'd sell a lot less TMAX developer! I have used TMAX
with TMAX 100 and 400 films for a couple of years at 1:9 solution at 75 degrees F with excellent results after having that recommended to me here. "John" wrote in message ...

Douglas, Photographer - http://www.darkroompro.com Please remove the "_" when replying via For which films? 1:9 is the standard dilution at 1:1 with about 1.5 X the developing time of the standard solution. In fact, T-Max and T-Max RS have much too short times for many films, i.e., less than five minutes, so stretching this to around 8 minutes is another advantage. It would be intersting to know if T-Max RS can still be replenished at 1:9. DK-50 can be so its possible. -- --- Richard Knoppow Los Angeles, CA, USA

This way (recommended) Kodak sells more than double its product - good
marketing...! I've often why Kodak doesn't simply recommend using Tmax at 1:9. It's a much better developr diluted at 1:9 then at 1:4.
