Re: developing HIE in d-76

["Nelson Enochs" <syrinx2112ad@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

When you say "worst" results, what do you mean?  With regards to what?  I 
also don't understand what you mean by "hot".  How does the developer affect 
the negative when it's too "hot".  Tell me how D-76 is superior and why if 
you could.  Like I said, I don't know diddly when it's comes to infrared 
processing.  I understand the mechanics of exposure/etc, but I'm still 
experimenting in the darkroom.  Thanks for your response.  Anyone else?
