I'd avoid Tmax films and developers. They do require more precise control over temperature and time than "regular" film and chemistry.(posted 8587 days ago)For general use I'd suggest HP5+ or Tri-X in HC-110. HC-110 is cheap and it lasts forever in the concentrate. Both Tri-X and HP5+ are quite forgiving of exposure errors, both are cheap and both can be pushed a couple of stops if you want faster film.
I don't use stop, just a water rinse and I use Kodak's general purpose fixer (whatever it's called!).
