Just wondering if anyone has tried developing Agfa APX100 in Perceptol. Is it possible? What sort of development times would you recommend?
-
I haven't tried it, but it sounds like an interesting combination. The Massive Dev Chart (www.digitaltruth.com) suggests 9 minutes in straight Perceptol for an EI of 100 with the original APX 100. That's probably a good starting point.

Perceptol is similar to Microdol-x, I've found that APX 100's Exposure Index is ISO 32, and takes 18 minutes to develop in Microdol-x 75F 1:3. Your mileage may vary.
My results were densitometry tested.

The Ilford pdf for their powder developers gives 9min in full-strength Perceptol for APX100 at EI=50.
I'm not saying that it's right, of course!
I would expect 1+1 or 1+2 to give nicer results, and (sticking my neck out) would give it 11 minutes at 1+1 for my first try.
I would be inclined to expect a low film speed as stated in the post above.
