I tried this film and found it to be unsatisfactory. It lacks contrast,
though I have been developing it with straight Dektol, as opposed to a lith
developer (I was told that Dektol would work fine).

Hello,
We are using this dupe film at Cypress College (Orange County,
California) with GREAT success, by using a developer made by Lauders.
It's more concentrate than straight Dektol, but we mix it in varied
dilutions (from 1:1 to 1:30) and get acceptable results for most
processes. Has anyone else used it?
