Hello,
I would like to know, the kodak marks on the negtive ( near the perforation) appears to be grey after I develop the film. Does it means it's under dev ou over dev ?
I used kodak time and 30 sec agitation, and then 25s/5 of agitation.
Thanks a lot MAtthieu

If you overdevelop, the marks on the film (and just everything else too) will become darker. But I suppose we are talking considerable overdevelopment, as I have not encountered this myself.

Why not do a simple test? Shoot a whole roll of a 'normal' subject. Then, cut the film in thee parts. Develop each seperately - on with 25% more time, one normal, one less.
Quick way to find out your ideal time.
