I have been using the new Delta 400 and Xtol 1:1 in rotary and the results
are just great, so naturally I want to try 1:2 dilution. Has anyone here any
experience with this combo? How about FX39?

The grain at 1:1 is well under control, and the tonality with red filter is
good (not as good as tmax though) .
I rate it EI 500, use the matrix meter on my Nikon N80 and bracket +,- 1/2
fstops. Works just great for landscape..

Regards
Shawn..

Shawn,
I am about to try T-Max Y in my Jobo. Would you tell me what time you use?
