Good but packaging could be better

The chemical itself is high quality and develops my 5222 film nicely. However, the bag seal was slightly loose upon arrival, so I had to transfer it to an airtight container immediately to prevent moisture exposure.

Perfect for 5222 Stock

This D96 powder yields incredibly consistent results with Kodak 5222. The grain structure is fine, and the contrast is exactly what I expect from this classic formula. Highly recommended for motion picture film enthusiasts.

Professional Grade Results

As someone who shoots a lot of 16mm, having access to analytical pure grade D96 is a game changer. My scans come out clean with minimal noise. Will definitely purchase again.

Excellent for archival work

Using this for restoring old footage shot on 5222. The purity of the grade ensures no unwanted artifacts appear on the negative. Very satisfied with the clarity and depth achieved.

Great quality, tricky mixing

The developer works wonderfully once mixed, producing sharp negatives with excellent tonal range. Just be careful when dissolving the powder; it takes a bit of stirring to get it fully integrated without clumps.

5 FAQ

Q: Is this powder safe to mix in a home kitchen environment?

A: While the product is analytical pure, we strongly advise against mixing chemicals in food preparation areas. Please use a dedicated darkroom or well-ventilated space with appropriate protective gear like gloves and a mask.

Q: What is the recommended dilution ratio for standard development of 5222 film?

A: For standard development of Kodak 5222, we recommend a 1+1 dilution with distilled water at 20°C (68°F) for approximately 9-11 minutes, depending on your desired contrast index.

Q: How long does the working solution last once mixed?

A: Once mixed with water, the working solution is best used within 24 hours for optimal consistency. Oxidation can occur after this period, potentially affecting development times and image quality.

Q: Does this product include a stop bath or fixer?

A: No, this package contains only the D96 developer powder. You will need to purchase separate stop bath and fixer solutions to complete the full development process.

Q: Can this developer be used for other black and white films besides 5222?

A: Yes, D96 is a versatile formula suitable for many traditional black and white negative films. However, development times will vary significantly, so please consult specific data sheets for other film stocks.
