Hi Jim,

A timely bump of this thread for me. I just tried LPD for the first time the day before yesterday. I used it to develop two paper negatives, and I can certainly see a tonal difference from dektol and like the way they look, but it is far too soon to say anything more. I'll be making prints with it soon. It will be fun to play with the dilutions on warmtone paper, but I'm hoping to settle on one "main" dilution. Starting with 1:2 since that's what the replenishment instructions are for.

I'm planning to use it replenished and a main attraction for me is the idea of keeping a bottle of working solution always ready in my darkroom. I think I've read every thread about LPD on APUG, but always glad to read more!
