George, I only just re-entered souping film a few months ago. Df96 monobath claims it is for all black and white films. From what I read; it switches from development to fixing the image at some point in the one step process. The directions are vague, I assume, by design, and temperature and time have wide latitudes. I did two extremely mistreated & expired Tri-x rolls, and both came out a bit foggy - which I expected. I'm shooting a fresh roll of Portra 160 in one Nikon FM body (v2), and a roll of Ilford FP4 (shot already) + another half roll of the ancient Tri-x to finish in another FM body (v3). When I finish the second b&w I'll soup them together in mono bath, and finally get to see fresh film results. I picked up some Rodinal will likely get some HC110,, but haven't mixed any. I have experience with many developers, but the monobath seems extremely easy to use, and almost mistake proof. First Ivy shot is with the 105mm f2.5 ais, second is with the 50mm H.C. f2

Question for you Nikon lens film shooters (to keep on thread topic ) ...
Do any of you have experience with DF96 monobath and Neopan Acros II developing? That film is not listed on their developing instruction sheet. I think I read where you can do 2x the regular developing time and be ok with that film, but can't find where I read that now.
