Being new to LF, this is the first time I have run in to this situation, but I'm sure it will not be the last
After changing lenses, I neglected to put on a 6 stop ND filter but did not neglect to include it in my exposure calculation. So I have a negative and backup that is over exposed by 6 stops. I went ahead a developed one with normal time just to see what 6 stops over on TMAX100 looks like and there seems to be quite a bit of info on the negative although very dense. I was wondering the best way to develop the backup for best results from scanning? Would not N-1 make the negative lighter but also with less contrast? Is there a way to lighten development AND preserve contrast, N-1 w/ vigorous agitation? Isn't more agitation the same as adding development time, thus resulting in somewhat normal development? Is there another solution?
Thanks in advance,
