Any DR5 users out there?

Have any of you tried the DR5 process, and if so, what are your thoughts? I'm thinking about trying out a few sheets of HP5 in the process.

My first question is exposure metering. Should I meter for zone 3 and let the highlights fall where they will, or should I meter like I would a traditional E6 film.

Secondly, what about reciprocity? There is a chart on the DR5 website for Tri-X 320 in DR5: http://www.dr5.com/graphics/TXP%20at...ty%20Chart.pdf. This is nothing like Kodak's recommendations here: http://www.kodak.com/global/en/profe...4017/f4017.pdf. This would seem to indicate that DR5 SIGNIFICANTLY alters the typical reciprocity characteristics of film (at least for Tri-X 320.)

Thanks much!
