Re: [APML] Black Negs a new developement

["Brian Sledz" <brianhome@email.msn.com>]

Hello Again,
I seem to have no luck developing Lumicon hypered tech pan.  I took 4 more
TP shots Saturday night, none came out.  I have not had any astro shots come
out.  Four tries now and all sessions black negs.  I am thinking I should
only be going 4-6 mins in d19?  I went 8 minutes on Saturday night and all
black negs again.
I took daytime shots used the same developer for 8 minutes and the shots
came out.
At first I kept trying to blame something else, but it must be the hypering
developing combo ain't a workin.  These exposures Saturday were Halpha
filter, Pentax SDUF II @f4, 35mm TP 30-60 minutes.
Any tips?
thank very much
Brian
