    Simple film dev Question

    I plan on processing 3 4x5 sheets taco method, I just have a simple question, do i have to make any time changes to developer (Arista d-76) when I am processing more than one sheet at time? I have done one sheet at a time and it worked fine, just want to make sure I don't do anything wrong.

    No. Doesn't matter how many sheets as long as there is sufficient developer. The time remains the same.

    and by sufficient developer you mean enough developer to fully submerge all the sheets?

    Sufficient developer to submerge sheets completely and provide enough developer for the amount of film. I use a general rule of thumb that I require at least 250 ml of working strength solution for each sheet of 8x10 (80 sq. in.) or equivalent (4 sheets of 4x5 etc.). Cheers, DJ
