Vincent Peri Posted March 24, 2018 Share Posted March 24, 2018 Hello, I bought 10 rolls of the resurrected P3200 film this week, and I'm just wondering if anyone developed any yet in T-Max developer. I see where Kodak recommends shooting it "normally" at ISO 1000 for developing in T-Max developer. See http://imaging.kodakalaris.com/sites/prod/files/files/products/F4001.pdf where it says "The nominal speed is EI 1000 when the film is processed in KODAK PROFESSIONAL T-MAX Developer or KODAK PROFESSIONAL T-MAX RS Developer and Replenisher" However, the developing time given for ISO 400 is 27 deg. C, or ISO 800 at 30 deg. C, or ISO 1600 for 33 deg. C. etc. I'm guessing I should develop ISO 1000 for 31 deg. C., or am I splitting hairs? Thanks for any replies.

The numbers you are quoting are not temperatures, but DIN values, part of the ISO standard. The temperatures, in C and F, are at the top of the columns. That said, I read the speed comment differently. This film is designed to be pushed. The ISO 1000 value is found using ISO specified development methods, and should yield fine negatives. But TMZ is designed to give not so bad negatives at 3200 or 6400 or 12500 or 25000, the latter with developers like T-Max. 1 -- glen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just saw the degree symbol and jumped to the conclusion it was temperatures... Hmm... you mean "jumping to contusions..." http://bayouline.com/o2.gif Edited March 24, 2018 by Vincent Peri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
