    Um, TC400CN is a C-41 process film, isn't it?

    De

    Yes, I'm aware of that. And you can process with B&W chemicals any C-41
    film you want, color and b&w. Hence my question.

    Yes, but what you're trying to do is utterly stupid. Because the kind- hearted don't _generally_ suggest that other people do utterly stupid
    things, you are unlikely to get a "(suggested) developing time" from
    someone who isn't just trying to fuck with you.

    If you want images from that film, process it as C-41.


    I know this thread is a bit old, and you have probably sorted out the
    film by now, but I would be interested to know the results.

    The reason for me asking is that I was looking today at the "devchart"
    at www.digitaltruth.com, and noticed that it lists developing times in
    D76 (among others) for Ilford XP2 and Kodak BW400CN - which I thought
    were both chromogenic films only suitable for C41 process.

    Have I missed something ?

    (I have about a dozen out of date T400CN in the bottom of my fridge as well)

    I think you'll get amusing, possibly useful results with any B&W developer, perhaps using time/temp per some random time/temp (e.g. per Tri X). Don't let the bastards get you down. Have fun.
