Originally posted by tuco Nice. You had willing subjects. I've never had to developed my film at that warm of temperature. The results look good. Some people use Diafine when the water temperature gets warm. It has the same dev time for almost all films within a temperature range of 21-29C if you didn't know that already.
tuco,
Thanks, it is very rare that I get a model at all, let alone three willing ones
I developed two rolls of Tri-X at 27C, which was on the coolest day for weeks. I think my chemical temp would be around 30C if I was to develop tonight. Water out of the tap may be even hotter... This was the most I have improvised with my developing so far - going to 1:9 with the Tmax to slow it down and trying it for 6.5 minutes. Really, I am glad the results came out OK.
Thanks for the note on Diafine, really I had no idea! So please continue to tell me things that I "may know already", as really it's all new for me
I think I'll have to get me some of that to get through the summer.
Originally posted by gary2881 Jason, nice group of friends, I like the looks of this shot. I wish I had ordered some Tri-x too.

Thanks Gary. Always time to order some more Tri-X. In my limited experience, I quite like the look of the older style emulsions, and like how the visible grain is low with Tri-X in 120. At 400 anyway.
cheers!
