Default Adox ADX?

Has anyone used the Adox ADX developer?

It seems to be a two-component developer but I'm not able to find any
times for it or any reports of its efficacy.

Thanks,

Matt

Do you have a source web site for it?

Seems to be just about the only source I can find for much information.

I can read some of the German

Entwickler means developer

Entwicklerkonzentrat means developer concentrate

Verdünnung means dilution

Arbeitslösung means working (strength) solution

Standard dilution is 1+24

Entwicklungstabelle means development table

Überentwicklung means over-development

Empfindlichkeit means sensitivity or speed

"Durch Überentwicklung lässt sich die angegebene Filmempfindlichkeit
noch steigern, wobei jedoch die Gradation steiler und die Körnigkeit
gröber wird."

This means that through over-development it is possible to increase
speed, but gradation will become harsh and graininess will become
worse.

What else do you need to know?

Thanks for the info.

I can read the small print on the jpeg of the bottle - it seems usual
usage is 1+1+24.

I was just curious if anyone had used it and if there was any other
source for development times.

Thanks,

Matt

"ADOLUX® ADX A+B: 2 Komponenten Entwickler. Dieser Entwickler vereint
Eigenschaften die sich normalerweise gegenseitig ausschliessen. Er
arbeitet schärfesteigernd, empfindlichkeitssteigernd und feinstkörnig
zugleich. Die einzige Einschränkung ist die Lieferung in 2 getrennten
Komponenten welche kurz vor der Verwendung gemischt werden müssen. Die
so angesetzte Arbeitlösung hält sich nur kurze Zeit."

Two-component developer that combines desirable properties that are
normally mutually exclusive. It produces best sharpness, highest speed,
and finest grain at the same time. (Comment: Yeah, right.) The two
components must be combined just before use, as the developer dies
shortly thereafter..

ADOLUX® APH 09 - Basierend auf den Rezepten für den Ur-Rodinal von
1918. Ein sehr ausgleichender Entwickler für höchste Schärfe und
fein akzentuiertes Korn. Ideal für Große Filmformate. Abstimmbar in
der Verdünnung zwischen 1+10 und 1+200.
1 Liter Konzentrat. Verdünnung 1+20..1+400. Die Kapazität der Flasche
ist Abhängig von der Verdünnung: 70..1330 Filme.

Based on the recipe for the original Rodinal from 1918. A deevloper for
highest sharpness and fine-accentuated grain (????!!!). Useable in
dilutions between 1+10 and 1+200.

Ideal for LARGE FORMAT (!!!!!)


ADOLUX® ATM 49 - Feinstkörnig arbeitender Pulverentwickler zum Ansatz
von 2x1 Liter Stammlösung. Universell für alle S/W Filmtypen zu
verwenden. Der Entwickler für feinstes Korn bei gleichzeitig
ausgeglichenen Negativen und hervorragender Empfindlichkeitsausnutzung.


Fine-grain powder developer. Universal developer suitable for all B&W
films. The developer for finest grain...blah blah blah....yadda yadda
yadda...

The bottles arrived today.

For ADX the first bottle lists 'hydroquinone' as the ingredient. The
second 'potassium thiocyanate'. I've no idea what other ingredients are
in them.

Will test this weekend.

The two components are combined immediately before use.

Thanks,

Matt
