Jan,
Not sure which tank & reels you are using, but it looks to me like you are not
using enough chemicals (and/or during inversion, the top of the roll is not in
chemicals while they flow back down). I used to have a lot of problems with
that in my simple plastic tank (the common black plastic tank with the red
lid, Made in Spain, and sold by Omega and many others), and just with 120 film
(and even after going to 25 oz., rather than recommended 20 oz.). I now spin
the tank with my wrist during inversion times (so as to vigorously mix up the
chemicals -- easier done than explained) rather than truly inverting it and
that seems to take care of it. BTW you only need to do that with the developer,
for stop, fixer & hypo-clear, none of this matters.
Hope this helps,
Mike
P.S. Nice photos

Hi Everyone,
Here are two results from my TMax 100 development in 9.5 min in 1:1 D
76 at 20° C.

Agitated the first full minute then 15 seconds out of every minute
thereafter. Ca. 10 minutes in Ilford Rapid Fixer and 16 minute
washing with Jobo Cascade. Dried after 1 minute Photo Flo 200
treatment.
How important is the Kodak Hypo Clearing bath? So far I am pretty
happy with the results, although I still prefer the results I got
with Fuji Neopan 400.
I noticed on the right side of both images a row of spottings. Its
also evident in this picture from an earlier roll:

Is this the dreaded roller reflection? If yes, what was the remedy
this list agreed upon? Roller replacement by Harry Fleenor? Or get
an FX ;-)
