stephen_vaughan3 Posted August 22, 2001 Share Posted August 22, 2001 Has anybody tried processing Bergger 200 in DiXactol? Have heard that it has characteristics similar to Pyro. Any top-tips welcomed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul_owen Posted August 23, 2001 Share Posted August 23, 2001 Stephen, I have but found that the Bergger film is a bit too grainy, well not as sharp as FP4+ anyway. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_kargotis1 Posted August 23, 2001 Share Posted August 23, 2001 Bergger 200 was quite a disappointment as Paul say's its grainyand difficult to get any contrast out of it. From what I can gathermost people have tried it and moved on Bergger will have to improve it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david_munson Posted August 23, 2001 Share Posted August 23, 2001 Haven't tried it in DiXactol, but I've been using the Bergger BPF 200 in PMK Pyro and absolutely love the restults I've been getting. Sharpness and grain haven't been a problem, though I never enlarge any bigger than 11x14 from my 4x5 negs. From what I understand, BPF really wants to be developed in some sort of pyro formulation and doesn't respond all too well to other developers. As for DiXactol, you might just want to go ahead and try it to find out for yourself. If you like the results you get out of it, that's all that matters.
