Reality check:(posted 8319 days ago)I got curious about John Douglas' recommendation of D-23 for Delta 3200; it worked, nothing spectacular, pretty grainy but more "real" speed than D-76 while less than Xtol, Microphen etc.
Then Patrick Gainer got me to thinking about vitamin c, so I added some sodium ascorbate, fiddled around and came up with a _greatly improved_ version of D-23 for Delta 3200.
But then last night I made some more negs using the "standard" of DD-X 1:4 for a fresh comparison...well, that's the end of the D-23 experiment.
However, this has been a very interesting project and worthwhile exercise.
Patrick, we really appreciate your participation here in this forum.
