I just picked up my first roll of Acros II. What is the development time in Df96 for this? It's not in the datasheet, but I believe it's similar to T grain films, so I would expect it requires additional time....what is your experience?

Yep just like T grain films so double the time to clear the base.

Thanks. My Df96 is nearing expiration, so I'm not sure if I'll use Df96 for it when I get around to shooting it (I have TriX in my M645 now, and will be shooting Porta after that I believe, unless I can get out to hike this weekend, as I'd like to try the acros for some landscape work). I think I'm going to try some HC110 or Rodinol and see how that looks too.

After roll #14 I put a test strip into the DF96 to make sure it is still good. I just cut off and trim the end leader of the film I am about to develop and use that. If it comes out black after an appropriate amount of time, it's still good.
