HELP! Purple Negatives!

Do you recycle your chemicals? It might be time to use some new ones. I've had purple negatives before. I don't think it ever affected the way my pictures printed though.
 
Ok Ok....let's nip this in the bub

Bad news: yes it is under fixed (T-max dose need longer fix times, so do some other films). YOU CAN NOT OVERFIX! Go ahead and fix for 15min. I do all the time. And try using nice fresh fix. I have found that Ilfords fix works better than kodak. Don't wory about making sure that the temp of the fix is 68*; what are you going to do...fix it too much? You can't =)

Good news: you can re-fix your old negs. Stick them back in the fix untel they look right. Rinse and print =)

Trust me on this one, I have diveloped thousands of roles (used to own a custom lab).
