Since the stain acts as a mask for the grain, I would have to say its due to scaning. Pyro developed negatives are meant to be printed.

You may have over-developed it a bit.... Of course, I am looking at scanned result so I'm not certain. I typically use D-76 so I can't share my experiences.

It would probably do you better to ask this on a dig/hybrid site.

To me have told that this solution (pyrocat) is impossible or almost impossible to overdeveloped.

I've found most 400 speed films are close to 12 minutes and most slower films are closer to 10 minutes @ 1+1+100.

This is a generalization of course and I only use PMK with with a few films so far.

But I like the keeping properties and what it does with TriX/Arista Premium 400 is really nice for skin tones.

22 minutes will be about 50% over developed in Pyrocat HD at that dilution & temperature, the times for most films except Foma are aound the 15 minute mark. Foma require less about 10-12 minutes or the contrast goes to high.

Thanks for answers!
The resume - for a film 400 iso 1+1+100, 20C, 12-15 minutes
For 100 and 200 iso 10-12 minutes.
Correctly?
And how to be with films 800 iso and above?
Push process is possible?
