Judy,
You have the old style reels- they were improved- now hold six sheets and were
redesigned for more even development. I also have the expert drums and haven't
noticed that they develop more evenly than the new style reels- (i don't use pyro)
but i have noticed more carry-over with the expert drums when using them for E-6.
