Hello all, new to the forum (just one other post)...
I was taught with film about 20 years ago and am just getting back into it and as you would imagine am very rusty!!
Apologies if this is a dumb question but things have moved on a fair amount and web searching is not giving me clear enough direction...
When I was previously using film we were always taught to push and pull dev times (using ID11) for highlight placement (Zone 7 etc).
I really like the sound of the properties pyrocat HD and wanted to try this out but I can't seem to find decent reference to shorter or longer dev times to place highlights depending on the contrast of the scene - I will of course do my own tests when I am up and running but was hoping to do some reading on the topic in preparation. Might someone be able to give me some pointers ?
thanks!
