Before I commit to pouring chemicals into the tank, I was wondering
peoples experience in running HP5 EI 800 in DDX? Using listed times at
20?C? Anything I should know?

Same thing for running Neopan 1600, no push, in DDX at rated/listed
times..anything I should know?

Any reason to deviate from published times given accurate exposure?
Thanks!

I dev. Neopan 1600 6'15", inversion 2x/60", 20?C.
It's rather hard graded, but I love it for stage work.
At IE 1600 you won't have full shadow detail, IE 800-1000 is better, but for
me IE 1600 works too.

see how it works for me: http://home.tiscali.be/jant/IndexMood.htm

You cannot push film. It doesn't work. Save yourself the trouble.

The true speed of HP5 is about 320. The true speed of Neopan 1600 is
about 650-800 depending on the developer used.

Use 2/3 the recommended times.
