Availability of Unicolor 8x10 Film Drums.

Thanks John. I'll run some negs and see if I can replicate the streaks. I've used most developers and haven't seen any problems in the sky areas. The reason I like the drum is the eveness of development I get with it. I talked to an old color man and he said the agit pattern was developed specifically for the tempermental color process which was prone to density distortion problems. I think the Uni drum has a 1 2/3 rev pattern. I haven't tried any of the PF developers for film so I'll try them. James

I just ran two loads of 8x10 HP5+ in Unicolor 11x14 drums tonight in D-76H 1:3; no artifacts at all, and the subjects included large smooth-toned areas that wou ld've shown any.
