[APML] Large Format TMax Film vs Tech Pan and film creep



Hello!  I’ve been using 4x5 inch TMax.  It has some (though minimal) red sensitivity compared to Tech Pan.

 

    I’ve read that Tech Pan can have bending of the negative or film creep during exposures, especially with humid air.  The TMax is about 2/3 thicker, and I haven’t seen such a problem, though I’ve only developed about 20 sheets.  Has anyone had problems of film creep/bending with large format TMax?

 

    I put some aquarium air hose attachments on my box camera so I can hook up an aquarium pump with some calcium carbonate or other dehumidifying agent, but I am not sure this would be needed with TMax.  Best regards.

 

Mike
