EI is the speed the film was rated at when shooting. Times marked “not yet verified” come from secondary sources and haven’t been checked against a manufacturer datasheet.

Calculated from the 20°C time using Ilford’s temperature compensation factors, not taken from a datasheet. Most B&W developers behave well between 18°C and 24°C.

How they work together

510-Pyro: Very-high acutance, full film speed, compensating contrast. Exceptional highlight control with subtle staining.
Harman Technology Kentmere Pan 400: Harman's budget line. Clean, flat negative that scans well. Finer grain than Fomapan but less character.
Notes on this pairing: Hartung semi-stand: 1 min continuous inversion, then one inversion at 10, 20, 30 min.
Rotary processor or tray, continuous agitation.
Rotary processor or tray, continuous agitation. Two-stop push.
