Pinkish fixer + Tmax 100

[mike goldberg]

Hi...
I developed Tmax 100 for the first time in a lot of years...

The Fixer, which I re-use several times, came out pinkish.
Is this a normal occurrence?

Thanks, Mike

Tri-x does that too for me, Mike. The colour fades. Next time you use it, it won't be pink.

T-Max, Delta and ACROS all do that ... though it seems to depend on the developer how pink the fix gets.

You guys are both right... After a few minutes, the fixer returned to its normal color, slightly pale yellowish.

It's a test roll from the Zorki-4 I got a few days ago, and the negs, now drying,
look OK.
Cheers, Mike
