i think i finally nailed the development time for polypan f pushed to iso 100.
i tested with 3 developers, hc110, rodinal stand and d76. A
As I develop mainly at room temp here in Asia, at around 30C, the time taken
is usually halved.
This usually creates huge grains, but since PPF is fine grained, the effect is
somewhat like FP4+, fine but still noticeable grains.
I noticed that perhaps due to the lack of the anti-halation effect,
PPF gives a shimmering effect to skin tones especially if there are
sufficient light on the skin.
The pictures below were developed in D76 in 1+1 dilution for 10mins@30c (or 20mins@20C)

with a lower contrast lens like the Summarit,
the effect is quite interesting as well.
