Re: D11 was: Source for continuous tone ortho films

[Eric Neilsen <e.neilsen@worldnet.att.net>]

Christine,  D11 is a high contrast developer.  I have used it with some 
negatives during the enlarged negative process to increase the contrast 
to acceptable levels.  It can be used with many films.  The more 
continuous tone the film the longer the scale.  with a lith film , it 
will give you a very steep scale.  Kodak recommended D19 in its place 
when I called them.  You'll note that I posted both formulas.
