Response to Streaks on negatives

Streaks on the negative happen during the first min. or so of development and are caused by either to much or to little agitation. In most cases it is the former. Try using a more even and softer first and second agitation method on a few test rolls and see if that helps. Streaks are something that we all get, weither we see them or not. They are more noticed in clear areas (skys,etc.). But if you were to measure all your negs under a densitometer you would find that almost all your negs had some buildup on the edges. Its he nature of the beast.
