I decided to experiment with semi-stand development and the results are ... not good. The negs appear to have almost no detail in them. Tech info follows in hope someone can spot something dumb I did. Meter, thermometer, and film are known good. I found this dilution and starting point from Sandy King on the web somewhere for Delta 100. While I realize this is quite different than APX 100, I thought I'd get *some* kind of results here:
Agfapan APX 100
EI 80
8 5x4 sheets developed in open tank with hangers
2L of Pyrocat-HD mixed 1.5:1:150 (20ml A, 13.33ml B, 2L distilled water)
5 minute prewash in running water
90 seconds initial continuous agitation
15 sec agitation at 15min and 30min mark
At first blush, there seems to be very little/no exposure detail on these negs.
Looking for dumb or obvious errors and/or suggestions for better times or dilutions.
TIA
