Response to X-Tol dev times with various high-speed films

from John Hicks / John's Camera Shop (jbh@magicnet.net)
Do NOT process high-speed films in straight undiluted Xtol. You'll get the least speed (like EI 800) for "normal" to high contrast. Guaranteed. Ilford has its collective heads in the sand on this one.

For Delta 3200 at EI 3200, try Xtol 1:2 20'/75F.

While the development times for TMZ and D3200 are pretty close, there's more than a minute difference for the same EIs and CIs. I wouldn't process them together; one's going to be off a bit too much.
