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.

How they work together
- PMK Pyro
- Fine grain, very-high acutance, full film speed, compensating contrast. Extraordinary highlight separation with proportional staining.
- Kodak T-Max 100
- Professional tabular grain film with very fine grain and notable sharpness. Well-suited for detailed work and large enlargements.
- Notes on this pairing
- Sheet gives EI 80-100. Very sensitive to time and temperature. 70°F (21.1°C). Two inversions every 15 s.
- 80°F (26.7°C). Sheet gives EI 80-100. Two inversions every 15 s.
