I've had good experiences with Photographer's Formulary products since 2012
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 say give it a try
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
Formulary's Divided D-76 Film Developer is an economical metol-hydroquinone film developer. Films developed in Divided D-76 have normal grain, good sharpness and excellent tonal gradation. This developer is a two bath compensation developer. The chemicals in the Divided D-76 are used to prepare two working solutions. The film is placed in solution A for 3 minutes and then in solution B for 2-4 minutes, depending on the film and contrast desired.
Solution A contains the developing agents and solution B contains the alkali. Development begins when the film is placed in solution B and lasts until the developing agents retained on the film back are exhausted. This method of development holds back the highlights and brings out the shadow detail. The film speed is not reduced. The shelf life of solution A is 2 months and solution B is a one shot solution.
