FP4 Plus
Note
Development times may need adjusting to
suit individual processing systems and working
practices. If an established system is producing
good results, adjust the recommended
development times until the desired contrast level is
obtained. Development times in other
manufacturers’ developers are included for your
convenience, and are only a general guide. Other
manufacturers can and do change their product
specifications from time to time, and the
development times may change as a result.
METER SETTINGS BELOW EI 50/18
AND ABOVE EI 200/24
If FP4 Plus has been inadvertently exposed at
settings below EI 50/18 or above EI 200/24, the
following guide will ensure usable negatives are
obtained. Obviously, the quality of negatives
processed in this way will not be so high as
conventionally processed ones.

PROCESSING AT DIFFERENT
TEMPERATURES
FP4 Plus film can be processed over a range of
temperatures. Development at 20
o
C/68°F is
recommended and the times are given in the
development times table. If development is not
possible at 20
o
C/68°F, the following chart can be
used. The chart is based at 20
o
C/68°F for a
general developer, and can be used to give an
estimate of development times at temperatures
around 20
o
C/68°F 
For example, if 4 minutes at 20
o
C/68°F is
recommended, the time at 23
o
C/73°F will be 3
minutes and the time at 16
o
C/61°F will be 6
minutes.

Note 
The chart can only be used as a guide
because different developers and processing
techniques can vary the results.
