I really wouldn't cut back too much on development as contrast will
suffer causing more problems with printing than excess density.  Your
negatives will be a bit dense but you should be able to print through
without much problem.  The suggestion to use Microdol or Perceptol is a
good one.

Subject: [pure-silver] Suggestions needed from the real experts here


Well today was just one of those days.  Working today with some Tri X
pro 
400TX and was working with studio lights and a Minolta Flash Meter.
Well 
somedays you just wake up dumb and today was one of them.

Yep was working with 2 cameras one set at ASA 100 while the Tri X is
400. 
Want to guess which ASA the flash meter was set on and the really smart
one 
today forgot to switch when switching cameras.

Yep it looks like the Tri X got about a 2 stop over exposure.  At least
it 
will dense rather than thin negs.  I thinking of cutting the development

time down to compensate.  Any recommendations on how much to cut it and
if 
the explaination isn't too deep in chemistry Id appreciate it.  I plan
on 
using D 76 either straight or 1 to 1.

Thanks for all the help

Mark
