Jeffery,

Sorry. This is slightly off topic to this thread. But someone on the LUG
posted about PMK Pyro a while back. Was that you, and if so what was
your experience with the stuff in terms of ease of developing and
results? 

I'm using TMAX 100 and 400 but just picked up a brick of Plus-X. I'm
thinking of trying PMK with Plus-X. 

TIA
Dave

As I recall, I tried masking tape (which, of course, is designed to come
off
easily...duh). I'm not trying to save money either...I was going to try
some
Eastman Double X film (ISO 200-250) which comes only in remnants since
it is
a cine film. But it is supposed to be similar to Super XX. I have read
that
Bergger 200 is also similar to Super XX. If that is the case, I'd rather
go
with Bergger 200 and not fiddle with reloading. Anyone out there used
both
films and can comment?
