Response to Emofin problems

from Thies Meincke (meincke@uni-hamburg.de)
I have used the combination apx100 and emofin for years. Compared to other developers emofin results in a HIGHER sensibility (speed) of a film, plus 1 to 2 stops. (zone system photographers will know what I mean when I say 80 - 100 ASA is the REAL speed of apx100 in emofin, in other developers like Ilfosol it is about 40 ASA).

For normal contrast I use the following times (apx 100/120):

Emofin 20 degrees Celsius: Bath 1 5 minutes, agitation 6 seconds every minute Bath 2 5 " " " " " " Stop Bath (20 deg) 30 sec

Fixing (20 deg) Ilford Hypam 1+4 + hardener 5 Minutes

Washing

Don't mix up the two baths of Emofin!
