Response to marginal density in Ilford films
from Tim Brown (brownt@ase.com)
The manufacturer development times are just a starting point. Your
thermometer, agitation, even water make a difference. I use Xtol and
develop about 10-20% longer than Kodak's recomendation. Way back when
I used D-76 and doggedly stuck to the recommended times, and
overdeveloped alot of film. Did the same with Acufine and
underdeveloped alot of film too. Developing your own B&W gives you
unlimited control, so exercise it.
