I have been experiencing major problems developing 4x5 films with a Jobo 2500 tank and manual rotation. The tank leaks heavily (I own three of them and they have all the same problem). On top of that I find the rotation really awkward. I have therefore decided to agitate the tank by inversion. The process is OK but the negatives were heavily underdeveloped. I am now wandering if by prolonging the development time I will be able to get proper results or the lack of head space is not allowing a proper agitation of the developer and therefore the negatives can only get a "physical" (superficial) development.
