My experiement of TMX in Diafine

[justin low]

My negs print very well, but I have to print them around Grade 1/2 to Grade 1 1/2 to get "normal" contrast.

 

Here's one photograph I'm particularly impressed with.<div></div>

My experience with Diafine has been great and consistent. I use TRI-x almost exclusively and I find Diafine to be the best developer for my street work. Recently I shot some TXP 320 220 films and I think Diafine works even better with these older emulsions.

 

I haven't found any thread mentioned the use of Diafine with Kodak' HIE (Infrared film) so I souped a roll in it recently and found rating it between 400 to 800 is just about right. But I hate one thing, the neg is way too thin and it curls too much. I need to use a glass carrier to hold the film flat inorder to print them. Still, printing tri-x film developed with Diafine is best done with a diffuser at grade 2 on ilford papers.
