Response to Developing TMAX with Ilfosol-S

Hi. You can try T-MAX 100 in ILFOSOL-S dilution 1:9 for 8.5 min at 20C with agitation for 10 sec. every minute. For T-MAX 400 at the same conditions the time is 7.5 min. I haven,t tried this combination myself, since I mainly use ILFORD films ( the above is according to ILFORD technical information), but I,ve used ILFOSOL with DELTA-100 which is similar to T-MAX and results are not bad. You can expect slightly larger grain with ILFOSOL (still not visible on 24x30 cm print) with exellent sharpness and good tonal range. Good luck. Evgeni.
