Hi all, so tonight should be the night I develop my first 4x5 film in about 15 years. Got all my Sprint chemicals ready to go, but as I’m using a lesser known (and less expensive!) film, is it true that my developing times will be equivalent to what d76 would need? Any adjustments to make from the published d76 times? Also, I’ve got about thirty sheets of 4x5 to get through, and a liter of concentrated sprint developer. Figuring I’ll do dip and dunk with 8 sheets on hangers at a time. Should I discard my developer after each batch?
 
IIRC Sprint developing times are near to or equivalent to D-76 at 1:1.
