OK my turn to introduce myself to the Large Format Group. My name is Mike 
Kirwan and I have been a large format user for many, many years. My favorite 
tool is my Wista 45DX, followed by my Agfa Ansco 5x7 Woodie and last but not 
least my Senecca City View 8x10.

I shoot almost exclusively in Black & White, FP4+ and PMK Pyro is my usual 
combination for all formats, but being drawn more and more to TMX-100 in 
Readload for 4x5. No dust, and a whole lot lighter when venturing out in the 
field.

In the process of rebuilding my home darkroom to make room for my Omega E6 
with Color and Aristo VCL Head.

I recognize a number of names from other mailing groups and looking forward 
in spreading the word and knowledge in the world of large format.


Regards


Mike Kirwan


Greetings Mike,

Welcome to the f32 list.

I could not help notice your comments about using PMK, but being more drawn 
to TMX.  I use ABC+ Pyro (similar to PMK) and got very poor stain results 
with TMX.  Just curious about your results with PMK and the stain formation 
on FP4+ vs TMX?

Regards, Pete
