I know, from working years in a camera store and teaching photography classes, the following: Lots and lots of picture takers talk and talk techniques to death and never making any prints. The only way to find something out is to TRY IT! In regards to reciprocity failure and development

Jay - If reciprocity failure has caused an underexposure of the scene, then increasing the development is simply going to increase the contrast of the scene. If shadow values have not received enough exposure, then no amount of developing is going to bring them back. Cheers - george ---

Hello Shannon, For longer exposures I always use a water / developer technique. I expose my film normally and figure any reciprocity law failure as need and factor that into my development time like usual. I ususally use this process when I shoot at night but it also works for long exposures
