Response to Maximum Detail with 35mm TMax100 (TMX)

from John Hicks (jbh@magicnet.net)
I get the full EI 100 with Rodinal 1:100, TFX-2 and D-76H 1:3. Your mileage may vary.

TMX in Rodinal 1:100 and TFX-2 look alike to me, plus curve shapes and EIs are identical. Both these developers give a slight shoulder; if you don't want that, the addition of 12g/L sodium sulfite to the Rodinal working solution straightens it out a bit with no other effects.

TMX always looks a little weird to me with its lower acutance; I know it's sharp but it never looks particularly sharp. I prefer Delta 100 in D-76H 1:3.
