Kodak D-76 Film Developer provides full emulsion speed and excellent shadow detail with normal contrast and produces fine grain with a variety of continuous-tone black-and-white films. For greater sharpness, but with a slight increase in graininess, you can use a 1:1 dilution of this developer. It yields a long density range, and its development latitude allows push processing with relatively low fog. Proper replenishment of D-76 Developer with D-76R Replenisher will increase the capacity of the developer and maintain process consistency without an increase in the development time.
