A few days ago I made Ryuji's DS-10 developer. Since I dont have Dimezone S,
I added proper amount of Phenidone direct to the working solution (as Ryuji
suggested). I developed a few films and noticed, that B+F of the developed
films (Ilford Pan 400) is pretty high (higher than in any developer I used
so far in thirty years (Rodinal, HC-110, Microphen, A-49, DS-1, DS-2...). I
don't have densitometer, so all as I can tell is that contacts needed 1/2 a
stop more light to produce black on the film edges.
Is this normal?
