Re: developing w/ tmax film

I hope it's not a dumb question, since it's one that ALL of us have asked at
some point in our lives.

As another poster has said, consistancy is so important: then if something
goes wrong, it's easier to figure out. Cleanliness is another 'must'. Rinse
everything one more time than you feel is necessary - it's too easy a 'cure'
for cross-contamination of chemistry to pass up. And, if you decide add or
subtract something to alter contrast, or whatever, change ONE thing at a
time, again so you can know the cause instantly, should something go wrong.

Finally, (still speaking generally), there is no real 'right' developer:
each of the dozens out there impart a slightly different 'look' to the film,
but the T-Max developer mentioned by another poster is a good starting
point.

If you feel the need to find out how many film/developer combinations there
are, try the "Massive Dev. Chart" at 'DigitalTruth.com'. Kodak, Ilford, and
Agfa, (and probably others) have tons of information on thier web-sites, and
Agfa has free on-line courses that are fun to read, and very useful.

Best of luck. I've been single-handedly trying to deplete the world's silver
resources for many, many years (maybe 60 or more?) and still find something
new and exciting to try, almost every day.
