HIE in D76

     Kodak did indeed revise their processing times - from 12 min at 68F to
     11 min. to the new recommended 8.5 min.!!  The person I talked to 
     recently at Kodak advised that people were complaining that densities 
     were too thick/contrast too high and that is what prompted Kodak to 
     back off on the times.  Remember that these times are only suggested 
     starting points.  
     
     My students and I process about 60 rolls per semester in our lab using 
     small tanks.  I am recommending at least 30-60 sec increase over the 
     8.5 min starting point for something approaching printable densities 
     with that desirable IR glow.  The negs have looked thin and flat at 
     8.5 min.
