Re: HIE developed in xtol

["Elton N. Kaufmann - Cycloid Fathom Group" <cycloid@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am not familiar with Xtol and wonder how it compares in effective film
speed to D76.  My optimum TTF (with #25 filter) EI is between 200 and 400
using the Kodak recommended 68deg D76 processing.  So do you think that the
Xtol accounts for the good results using an ASA of 640?
