Response to Hardening of Kodak Negs?

One of the main reasons I abandoned T-Max sheet films was their soft, easily scratched emulsions. With roll films, however, that shouldn't be an issue. Make sure you are using a hardening fixer. At any rate, T-Max films are very demanding on the processing chemistry. (T-Max developer is very good, and many people, including myself, have had excellent results with Xtol.) They also take an ETERNITY to fix and deplete the fixer very quickly. My advice: switch to the Ilford Delta films.
