j._patric_dahl_n Posted September 16, 2000 Share Posted September 16, 2000 The Kodak D-25 formula seems interesting. Has anyone here tried this developer with films like Plus-X and Tri-X? If so, how was the results? <p> By the way, does anyone have the formula for Microdol-X? It would be interesting to know and compare with other fine grain developers.

ed b. Posted September 17, 2000 Share Posted September 17, 2000 I have no experience with it, but it is simply a variant of D-23 with 15 grams of sodium bisulphite added. An old formulary says it gives finer grain and lower contrast than D-23. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j._patric_dahl_n Posted September 17, 2000 Author Share Posted September 17, 2000 Hmmmm, maybe MCM-100 is the developer to use for me. They say it gives extremly fine grain and a long tonal range with Tri-X. Must look for feedback on this developer. Can't find any on the net.

john_r._fowler1 Posted September 17, 2000 Share Posted September 17, 2000 The formula for Microdol-X is given in the 'Photochemistry' column in the Sept/Oct 2000 PHOTO Techniques magzine - my favorite read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hotduckz Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 Hi, I just try D-25 with Forte 400 it's much contrast than D-23 and much than D-76. (I don't try with other films. may be some day.) Grain is fine but easy to seen not good for high magnification enlarging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
