Mixing Instructions

Fotospeed FD10 concentrate should be diluted by measuring the required amount of concentrate into a measure and adding water to the required volume. Two dilution ratios are given.

Dilute either 1+9 or 1+14 at 20°C..

Normal tank practice should be followed for agitation ensuring that the tank is tapped on the bench after filling with developer to dislodge any air bubbles that may adhere to the film. Normal contrast refers to the use of enlargers fitted with a condenser lamphouse, and high contrast refers to the use of enlargers fitted with a diffuser or colour mixing head..

Christopher ★★★★★

Mixed a litre of this developer last night and the concentrate mixed completely clear, no residue at all. My test roll of T-Max 100 came out with beautifully sharp grain and the edge detail is noticeably better than my usual developer. Exactly what I wanted for fine grain work.

Zoe V. ★★★★★

The fine grain formula gives my negatives incredible sharpness without losing speed—definitely delivers on the edge detail I was hoping for. Easily the best results I've had from a liquid concentrate in this price range.

Daniel T. ★★★★★

I’ve been using this developer for a few rolls now and the fine grain paired with sharp edges really makes my negatives pop. It’s easy to mix and works perfectly at box speed. Definitely my go-to for black and white film.
