Bob, In what context are you using the word soft?

DEAR HTH,
        Did the T-max 100 in Pyrocat at least have good acutance?  Or HD
(high definition) as Sandy calls it?  Though it seems there is often a trade
off between grain and acutance, can you recommend a high acutance developer
that doesn't produce too much grain with T-max 100?  I find that, with my
Leica and Leitz lens that perform VERY well with other film/developer
combinations, though 35 mm T-max 100 is fine grain and yields fine detail it
simply looks soft.
                CHEERS!
                        BOB

1:1:100, 15 min. 72deg. F in a 16 or 32 oz.SS tank.  This printed well 
on VC paper with a #2 MG filter so all further were using this time, 
temp., dil.  ISO 100.

Agitation for all was 30 sec. initial, 10 sec. every 2 min. thereafter.  
Good negs but grainier than others and no other benefit.

I thought I remember reading that Mr. King developed this formula for 
negs that could be printed in either silver or pt./pd.  Again TMX 100 
(the old stuff) 135 & 120

HTH
