Response to Tri-x with D-76 1+3

For a nice pronounced edge effect and a fine grain developer, try Diafine. It is a 2 bath developer which means it has good compensating properties (i.e. will develop out your shadows to full extent but will only develop your highlights to a very printable degree), and is very fine grain. I don't care for the results with tabular grained films but with the older emulsions it is superb! You will be very pleased with the high acutance AND very fine grain of this developer and dispite what the directions say... use it at ASA.
