What should I use to develop older rolls of PanF that I have inherited?I. They came along with the purchase of someone else's old darkroom kit. I am thinking D-76, but could use advice. I don't know when they were exposed or how old these rolls are.

Thanks.

D76 is a fine choice and I would suggest that diluted 1:1 develop for 14.5 minutes at 68F/20C.

I take it that there is no problem with old but unexposed Pan F? The problem of latent image fade only applies to exposed but undeveloped film?
