Is reticulation a problem with modern films? I used to be paranoid about 
it myself, but now I do not worry about it. In the winter my tap water 
is 8-10 C, and I have experienced no problems with any of the Ilford 
Delta films or Fuji Acros when going from the 20 C processing 
temperature to the lower wash temperature.
