    Time for Acros in pyrocat HD and Jobo

    I develop the HP5+ in pyrocat HD using my jobo. I have found that 9min15s is great.
    I would like now to try the fuji acro 100 with the same process.
    What time would you recommend if you know both films ?

    I'd go for the same time, while I use a Jobo tank it's inversion - pre rotary, but I process HP5 and Acros 100 in the same tank with no problems.

    I process Acros for a minute less than HP5. It's a higher contrast film. I also use Pyrocat in a Jobo with hand inversion.

    Ian, what is your time, temp, dilution, and agitation schedule for inversion processing Acros in your Jono tank? I want to try this and it would be great to have a good starting point. Also do you pre-soak the film?

    My times for Acros in a Jobo are 9 minutes in Pyrocat HD 2+2+100 at 24C. I do a couple minute prerinse as well.
