Bob Fleischman, I've seen this statement that D-76 is a fine grain developer because it is a solvent developer so many times that I wish someone would prove it experimentally. Mix some home brew D-76 and start with, say, 25 g/l of sodium sulfite. Develop a strip of film. Add sulfite and do another strip. Repeat until you get up to 125 g/l. The effects of thse changes of sulfite might surprise you.(posted 8270 days ago)Pat Gainer
