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 ...

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. |

That part makes sense. What doesn't make sense to me is that it's a much
better developer and 1:9 and more people would keep using it after testing resulting in even more sales. I know that I first tried it at 1:4 and didn't like it. It wasn't until someone on the list suggested using it 1:9. Since I had most of a bottle left I tried it and loved the results. I also know that others here on the list have had the same results. Then again I'm not surprised by any of Kodak's marketing mess ups any more. photo wrote: : 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.
