Tunku that looks really good. For your 120 issue, my tank says 650ml for 1 roll of 120, so definitely 500 is not enough. I have not needed constant agitation - just the regular following instructions. Make sure on your next roll of 120 the temp is correct and the agitation is per instruction for that temp.
Thanks very much. All these examples were the 35 f2 Biogon...it's a sharp, contrasty lens and very flare-resistant.
Thanks Huss for that. I am headed out now to let some people (Who I think might know better as they actually trained and ran a photo processing business) have a closer look at the 120 negatives. Thanks again. and have a great weekend (ahead).

I like the one comment saying how bad it is because his Acros came out all milky and low contrast. Well that’s because Tgrain films need double regular dev times. Works great w Tgrain films as your images show.
Problem is having that comment out there w his example of his failure because he did not follow instructions may put some people off. Whoever posted that article should have responded, but that website has posted so many factually incorrect statements - both in their articles and in their comments section.
Exactly.
My first couple of rolls were inconsistent, but I learned how it works. I’m very happy with DF96 now.

Good examples. DF96 seems to work well with emulsions like HP5 as well as Acros II.

I have always been told negative things about Monobainth chemistry...
There are different types. This thread is for Cinestill DF96 Monobath. And also some of that negativity is from people who have never used it!
Kentmere 400 pushed to `1600 w/ DF96
Some of those things are true: most monobaths suffer a 1/3 to 2/3 stop speed loss (but so do a lot of mix-your-own conventional developers like D-23, or commercial ones like Rodinal); monobaths are less economical (than high dilution one-shot or replenished systems), and they have limitations due to not being true rapid fixer (tabular grain films take extra fixing time and will exhaust the fixer component faster than published capacity figures).
On the other hand, a monobath is the ideal travel developer -- one packet of powders and a (purchased locally) one liter PET beverage bottle, plus your tank and reel(s), and you can develop a dozen or or more rolls in a hotel room or camper van, only clean water for washing (and a tiny bottle of PhotoFlo) needed. As can be seen in this thread, aside from a very few "problem" film stocks, a monobath like Df96 can produce very good image quality, and it's quick and easy to use. And don't forget, every peel-apart instant photo ever was developed with what amounts to a monobath (integrals too, but their process is quite a bit more complicated than even color peel-apart).
Great shots, Huss. Also...I never really thought about Polaroid tech as basically monobath.
Thanks! I never thought about that either - thank you Donald for pointing that out!
