TMax 100 surprise
« on: August 11, 2020, 02:37:48 AM »
Hello all.  I just found an old bulk loader that I accidentally packed away...since 1986...with about 80’ of TMax 100.  Room temp for 34 years.  Any consensus from all of you for iso rating and developer suggestions?

Congrats on your film find! I'd just bracket a few shots from 100 to 8 or something and see what comes out the best! I'm going to predict 50 - 25...

I personally guess it's going to be closer to 10...
But only a test will tell.

My guess is shoot it at 25.
I know that's not in line with the rule of one stop per decade...

TMX has a large latitude, so even if it's not perfectly on the mark, you will get something out of it.

I’ll make a 10 exposure Roll and rate and 25 and go from there.  I’ll share soon.
