That to me is a real high-wire act -- VERY little margin for error! I don't in fact think I've ever done it, because if I felt I had to pull at 10 minutes, the thing was underexposed and ran like crazy or underdeveloped and almost uninflected.But I should probably add that development is quite different with digital negatives, at least that's my experience. It is more of an on-off thing... but I think we've ALSO had this discussion before... J.
