Response to Unaccurate info on developers

John, I know that shadow detail depends on how much exposure you give the film. However, certain developers are said to give more shadow detail than others with equaly exposed film. I already knew about Kodak's tech data. The developoement times, dilutions, temperatures and adjustments for re-use are realy fine. If you follow their guideline, it can't turn out too bad. The curves are not very precise and they don't tell you anithing about shadow detail, grainess and sharpness. Also, they are not available for X- tol or other developers.
