FP4+ in PMK

greenspun.com : LUSENET : B&W Photo - Film & Processing : One Thread

I shot a roll of FP4+ (120 roll film) at ei 100 this weekend. I can only find the developing time for ei 125 for PMK.

Any recommendations for ei 100?

(I have previously shot FP4+ roll film at ei 125 and developed for 12min in PMK @ 70F(agitate every 15 sec); results are good. Does this sound right?

I think FP4+ is "wide" enough and can handle 1/3 stop overexpousure with no problem. Moreover, many people believe that the true speed of FP4+ is ISO 100 (I also use it at this rating) so your dev time should be OK. If you have experience with pyro, I would be very happy to hear any comments on the issue, best films, small tips and tricks etc. You can use my e-mail as well. Thanx. Evgeni.
