My first experience with paper developer was a disastrous gallon of Dektol, which stained every print. Ilford, mixed 1 9 has yielded me more prints than I would ever need in a typical session. The 1 14 dilution would likely benefit smaller sessions like my own, at the cost of longer dev times. 5

Works well, doesn't take up too much space, and reasonably priced 5

I can't expel the virtues of this over other developers except to say it's reliable and affordable and that works for me. I use 50mL per printing session so this gets me 10 days worth of printing. Pretty affordable if you ask me. 5

Working in very large format (42 and up) I need to make gallons of developer at a time, and this is an excellent choice that is also incredibly affordable. 5

Easy to use, reliable, affordable. 5

Great developer for Black and White film. I had no problems when developing my film. I would recommend to a photographer. 5

Great fine grain developer. I use it with HP5 and Fomapan 100 and achieve awesome results. Development time is a bit longer than the published times. I find it works best at 1:9 for 12 minutes at 70°. 5
