Hello you all, this is my first post to this list.

I've sent this note to PHOTOFORUM list also, excuse me
all of you that received this mesage twice, but I think
this list has subscribers that can give some advice.

Have you ever tried the Kodak's Farmers Reducer (FR)?
I know that an adequate exposure and a correct development
performed by a photographer that loves his work
should not allow this type of error correction
procedures, but as you already know exposing IR
films is not easy, I've found that most of
my exposure errors are overexposures rather than
underesposures.

So, have you used FR with IR films ? How ?
Does FR increase or decrease contrast ?
Does FR has any effect in the grain of the film ?
Is there any other bad or good effect caused
by the use of FR on the film ?

Thank you all for your comments...
Regards...
