Congratulations! That's a big first step. And everything you used is completely adequate, and perhaps quite good. T-Max is a relatively hot developer, but it yields very nice results in most situations. I haven't tried it with Tri=X, but I suspect it will do just fine. Work with these chemicals for a while, then try something like D-76 1:1 and compare the results. Do some reading. See what other people are doing, and experiment. It's a lot of fun. And eventually you'll find something that's just right for you. Paul - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.
