FA:L Make yourself some D-23 with this pound of Metol -- read WHY here!
Are your portraits -- especially of women -- harsh and contrasty when
you WANT soft and sweet?? Then you need METOL, my B/W-shooting friend. Metol is a developing agent that's a component of many classic film developers including my favorite, D-23. What's so hot about D-23? It's a soft-working developer, great for portraits It has only two components: Metol and Sodium Sulfite It's cheap and easy to make At 1:1, it's a great one-shot developer; use and toss It's great in a Jobo or other constant-agitation processor So throw away that contrasty HC-110, save the D-76 for other subjects -- and make yourself some D-23 for portraits with that classic look -- even with 35mm. This is a one pound bottle which (with Sodium Sulfite), will make gallons of D-23. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=7533626716 |
