Response to PMK negative density

from shawn gibson (shawngibson_prophoto@yahoo.com)
Barring any strict densitometric readings, and adjusting my eye to the yellow/green stain, my best (printable) PMK negs seem to look about the same as any other neg, with the exception that the highlights seem to have more detail when looking at the negative.

As for the ISO thing, I've noticed that PMK generally wants about 1/3 stop more than most developers I've used, but otherwise it behaves pretty normal. For example, PMK with Technical Pan gives me ISO16, as opposed to Technidol which gives me ISO25, and apart from the difference in highlights, the two look pretty similar when printed. But that's all just my experience.
