About Photographers' Formulary Amidol

A professional-grade solution for photography enthusiasts and professionals alike, the Photographers' Formulary Amidol Photo Film Developer is an essential tool for high-quality photo film development. This innovative product, weighing just 0.5lbs, is designed to be highly soluble in water or sulfite, ensuring a smooth and effective development process.

However, it's important to note that Amidol can deteriorate rapidly once in solution. To enhance its longevity and maintain its high-performance qualities, the addition of a weak acid, such as lactic acid, is recommended. This not only improves the keeping properties of Amidol but also ensures that your film development process is consistently effective.

Unique to Amidol, it is energized by sodium sulfite alone, eliminating the need for any additional alkali. This makes the Photographers' Formulary Amidol Photo Film Developer a convenient and efficient choice for all your film development needs.

Whether you're a seasoned professional or a budding photography enthusiast, the Photographers' Formulary Amidol Photo Film Developer, available at Adorama, is a durable and high-quality choice for achieving the best possible results in photo film development.
