Photographers' Formulary Film Developer 

Shop Photographers' Formulary DiXactol Film Developer (Solution B Only) for fine grain, high contrast & archival quality. Easy dilution. Order today!

DiXactol is a unique developer of special interest to artists and photographers producing monochrome fine prints, yet it is also uniquely tolerant and easy to use. It has four main distinguishing characteristics. It produces the fullest palette of richly graduated tones, especially in the holding of translucent and delicately drawn highlights particularly resistant to "blocking up" at high exposure levels. At the same time, shadow detail and separation is nursed up to unusual levels.

Excellent stuff. Easy to mix and use. A great way to get a different look from your black and white film. May not be everyone's cup of tea, but definitely worth a try for experimentation's sake and to try and get closer to your artistic vision as a film photographer

I say give it a try

Fantastic developer, simple to use, great results. It really brings out detail like no other. Highly recommended.

One of the best developers out there...

What pyrocat does to the light is like no other developer. It is my go to developer
Excellent product...Thanks!

Formulary Pyrocat HD

This time I bought my Pyrocat-HD in Glycol from Adorama for convenience sake. I've had good experiences with Photographer's Formulary products since 2012 and have had consistent success with them. "Shiprock" was developed using a dilution of 1.5:3:100 in a Jobo 3005 Expert drum and a Jobo CPP3 processor operated at 55 RPM.

I've used Pyrocat MC in a Jobo for a number of years.  I get good results on a wide range of films.  The staining effect contributes to fewer printing steps.  Highly recommended.
