Re: HIE in T-MAX reversal kit

[Ken Sinclair <photo1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Otto

I can certainly and willingly attest to the quality of HIE film processed
to reversal. I believe the note referred to is the one by Jim Henderson...
I have seen many of his original slides...I have followed his technique..
and it works beautifully. It does provide a "speed increase"... It DOES
require the sulphite to be added to the first developer. The same "batch"
of the kit may also be used to reversal process Tech Pan.
