That looks good Mark :) I linked to this in the B&W Film/Developer Database Index (http://forums.photographyreview.com/showthread.php?t=38207) thread. Could you do me one favor? Any chance you could post an unedited negative scan from the roll? Thanks :)

I did a roll of ACROS 100 in D76 last night. I'm hoping to get some stuff scanned later this week.

mjs, How did it go? Did you follow the acros 100 data sheet or do your own times?

I think it went pretty well. The negs are a little thiner than I would like to see, but that could be an exposure issue. I'll post some pics once I get them scanned. I did follow the data sheet I found on the Fuji website. I used the 1:1 D-76 mixture, or 10 1/2 min.

This is one of my Acros in D76 photos. I have tweeked this in PS as the original had a redish cast to it.
