?Paterson Orbital? + T-Max 400

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Large format photography : One Thread

Does anyone have any experience of using the orbital tank processing of sheet film, for example Tmax 400. Also, does anyone have suggestions for a good developer to use with Tmax 400? Thanks, david kirk.

I rate Tmax 400 at 250 & Tmax 100 at 50 and process with Tmax RS 1:9 dilution for 11 minutes in a Besslar rotary tube and motor with excellent results. Tmax film will exhaust fixer so I use Kodak Rapid Fix for 7 minutes and it clears up the pinkish cast. Good luck & good shooting.
