Thanks, Ann.

Microdol X 1:3 actually was my go to developer for 35mm Tri-X in the past. I thought it was beautiful with the somewhat more grainy pre-2004 formulation of Tri-X in 35mm. At the time I was only using 35mm and the Microdol-X made a subtle but noticeable reduction in the grain that I really liked. When the new 400TX formulation came out, it was slightly less grainy and I really did not see much difference between Microdol and HC110. I still have a few packets of Microdol-X (as well as D76) but these days I rely on HC110 or Rodinal due to the long shelf life of the concentrate. Last time I mixed up some Microdol I wound up dumping it after several months - I just don't shoot film consistently anymore!

and once I tried it Ikept it- it was a nice grain reducer ..

Not a gruesome bug - I'm tired of digital machinations... so a film shot. Mz-S, Tri-X, FA 20-35 with XI green filter. Developed in HC110 Dil B.

Comments welcome!
