Pulled TMY to 100; reduce by how much in development?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : B&W Photo - Film & Processing : One Thread

I mistakenly pulled a roll of TMY 120 by 2 stops (after compensating already by 1/2-1 stop...). I know how sensitive TMY is to development errors, so I would like to know what kind of % you recommend in reduction of the time. There are a lot of white T-shirt shots and I don't want to lose the highlights. I develop in PMK pyro, and use 80deg. as my standard. Thanks all. shawn

I decreased the time by 30%. The pulled images are wonderful. The first two frames were exposed at 320ISO, and you might find it interesting to note that they barely registered, extremely thin, with a guess of no detail whatsoever in the first V-VI Zones. I find that kind of shocking...shawn
