Hello,
Using D-23 single shot not double bath and can not find times for use with Efke film. Anyone out there who can lead me in the right direction?
Thanks
Arthur
 
Which Efke film and what dilution do you want to use?
 
I am using 25 and 50. Stock solution replenished as well as 1:3.
I would like to test both versions on the film.
Thanks
Arthur
 
Generally speaking, I have found that D-76 times are a pretty good starting point. Depending on what the lighting and what I'm trying to accomplish, I usually go with the D-76 time plus about ten percent. It should also be noted that D-23 needs little if any compensation for time (much less than D-76 requires). I do not even bother to measure the developer temp any more when using D-23 - It just doesn't matter.
