Yesterday I got my last two rolls of Kodachrome back. It will be posted on my flickr over time.

Sad…. I wish I could have gotten more.

Thoughts on D76

Posted in Life on April 14th, 2009 by Michael

I have been trying several different developers over the last few months. One rather popular one is the D-76 made by Kodak (and the pretty much identical ID-11 made by Ilford).

Both of these developers are highly regarded by some, but I find my results… lacking.

Now don’t get me wrong, they have their charm, they create a “look and feel” of the 1930s, slightly desaturated tones and an overall “light” feel to the image. I have tried it on several different films with pretty consistent results which makes me think that it really is the developer.

If I would have to pick a favourite developer / film combination right now it would be Adox Art 100 pulled by one stop in HC 110 solution H…

Funny, eh? How we find “loves and hates” so easily.
