Sandy,
Currently I am using PMK on MACO IR 4*5 sheet film, I mainly print them on
silver gelatine, sometimes as Ziatypes, but 4*5 is on the small side
(depending on the image) for contact printing. I am just starting with
Pyrocat-HD on 8*10 HP5 (Arista 400), with the intention to use the same neg
for both Silver Gelatine and Kallitype.
My procedure with MACO 820c:
Expose at 16 asa (on my handheld meter), use a 70 filter
Process in a JOBO, small tank with 4*5 reel, max loaded with 4 sheets
22degC
2:2:100 (actually 2:4:100, since I use "B" halfstrength, could not get it in
solution full strength)
13 minutes
fix and wash, no after-bath
Hope this is of some use
(you might remeber that I have used ABC + (aka Rollo Pyro) in the past, but
I had a lot of problems: the solution had tpo age, and lost strength in 1-3
months)
Best,
Cor
