Yep! Films with tabular grain require double the processing time. For the TMAX400 TMY-2 photos I developed (previous page), my dev time was about 8 minutes (~24C) with intermittent agitation. I haven’t had any issues with Df96 and Kodak’s tabular grain film, but I’ve had issues with TriX where the negatives came out very purplish. I don’t know why, but it didn’t affect the final scanned and edited images. Mine had a purpleish tint as well. Reading online, it appears to be common with Kodak B&W films. Some call it the 'Purple Monster'... Apparently it's a residual sensitizing dye. Some say a longer wash helps
I’ll have to keep that in mind next time I develop some TriX. I wonder if a pre-wash/soak would help too...
