Response to Two bath (a.k.a. split) D 76

from Thomas Wollstein (thomas_wollstein@web.de)
You are probably right about the first bath. Agitation will not have too much of an effect there, assuming that the recommended developing is that for a saturated emulsion. Then, the concentrations of developing agent in the emulsion and in the solution are in equilibrium. However, agitation might shorten the time to equilibrium.

I would expect agitation of the second bath to have the same effect as with conventional one-bath developers. However, Emofin is not a dilute one-shot developer, and I would not expect a pronounced edge effect due to the local depletion of developing agent near edges.
