I, too, had used it many years ago back when the resolution champ was High Contrast Copy Film. The ADOX was much easier to control and gave better gradation. However, until I bought this stash of ADOX I had been using Tech Pan. I am now comparing negatives (almost as I write this) and my feeling is that ADOX KB14 is bested my Tech Pan in resolution and edge sharpness while the ADOX will ne easier to print. The contrast is better controlled. The details are there in ADOX, but they are razor sharp with Tech Pan. Bob Figlio
