So, in calculating exposure for a negative I accidently make a mistake and shoot at f/30 something that should have been f/32. In addition, its a four zone scene so I would normally develop for N+1. Can I compensate with the developing time to make up for having exposed with too much light? If my N+1 is normally 12 minutes and normal is 8 1/2 minutes, would dropping the 12 minutes down to 8 1/2 to 10 make up for it? Without messing up totally the target number of five zones? I get myself majorly confused when I try to wrap my brain around that one. Any thoughts or explanations that someone could drop on me? Easy to understand ones would help.
Also, what if I made the same mistake in reverse? Shot f/22 when it should have been f/16 1/3. And in this case, the zones metered were six so I was planning on developing with a N-1, or 7 1/4 minutes. Can I do the opposite and develop somewhere around 8 1/2 to 7 3/4 minutes?
Thanks for any help you can give me.
