I've been previously using Sprint Systems Developer, which they say is a match for D76 1+1 or ID-11. > As a general purpose developer, you can't go wrong with either > of them.

We'll see if thats repeated again, or not. > I did some pretty extensive testing with T-Max when it first hit > the market, and discovered that it works really well with T-Max > developer, but in ID-11 it does lose film speed, which may > account for the extra granularity that you are seeing.
