Kodak D-76 is the most important black & white film developer of the 20th century, but I barely ever use it. In this video I will show you how to mix up the developer, how to use it, and then you’ll understand why it isn’t my first choice.

If you love doing black and white film development at home this Kodak D-76 mixing guide is perfect for you. Learn about D-76 1:1 dilution versus stock solution.

Stick around to see what my go to black and white film developer is and if you’re dead set on using D-76 I know a way you can save money.

πŸ’¬ Drop a comment: if you also like it when Steve Buscemi yells about film chemicals.
