I have a roll of T-max 2300 (135) that I want to process. I have exposed this at 1600ASA and I have some Paterson Acutol - it doesn't give a development time for this film on the label, but I was hoping to use it anyway. It gives a time of 11 mins for Tmax 400.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks,

Matt

Paterson doesn't reccommend Acutol for the film, but looking over the chart 16' ought to do it for you.

If it's important film, try Aculux 2 or Xtol or D76.

The consensus of suggestions that I got was to shoot it at 1600 and develop it (in whatever developer) at the time for 3200. I've got decent negs. In fact, I was going to print some tonight.
