Having used my Dev-Tec for paper processing only, I now want to use it for film if possible for low contrast developing for the interpositives. This primarily for lower 1 shot developer usuage and to make it easier being in light tight containers. I suspect my contrast control I need will come in the dilution as well as the times. Since there are alot of Jobo users here I figure someone should have times and dilutions to start with for 4x5 PL100 or Tri-X in any developer, but I'm currently using Pyrocat HD and D76. I can also change film if need be. My enlarged final negs are on BPFB-18 which I suspect I'll have to figure out. Thanks for your insights.

I've read that the high dilutions needed when using Rodinal
are not possible with a Jobo because of the Jobo's
limited capacity. Constant agitation builds
contrast quickly. Dan
