From what I've read Kodak dont recomend using there TMAX developer for sheet film. I've been using it with great results however for 4X5. Anybody know WHY they do not recomend it?
Wich is the best developer for this paper, temp and time? I presently use Agfa rodinal + 20? + 90 sec.

Moreover I have just heard that Kodak discontinued the A B developer used for Litho film. Any formulas out there. I think D 76 can be used for the A, but what about the B? (Not sure about this.)
I'm about to start a printing project and am so far unhappy with my print developer. The LF images are of patterns of wood grain/seen cuts, and I'm looking for a developer to help soften the tonality
New to darkroom and am curious to know if anyone has used Perceptol developer. How does it compare to others? At this point I`ve only used Dektol diluted 1:2 or 1:3 depending upon how frisky I`m fee
