Subject: [Leica] Delta 3200

Hi all,

The other night on a bit of a whim, I grabbed a couple of rolls of Delta
3200 and more or less arbitrarily shot it at 1600 (gotta' do something to
speed up that 50mm Summicron!).  Now that I have shot these rolls, does
anyone have any suggested developer and time/temp for the 1600 EI?

I was thinking of giving Xtol a try, but this wasn't listed as one of the
developer options on the film packaging.  Has anyone used Xtol with this
film, or should I just go with good ol' D-76?  I am looking for reasonably
fine grain with good overall tonal gradation, FWIW.

Thanks for your input!
