Adox Atomal ATM 49 Black and White Film Developer (To Make 5L) #120525

Take your black and white photography to the next level with the Atomal ATM 49 Film Developer, a universal ultra-fine grain developer designed for all types of black and white materials. This product is renowned for its exceptional equalizing capabilities and optimal speed utilization across all film types, making it a versatile choice for both professional and amateur photographers.

The Atomal ATM 49 Film Developer is particularly effective for push-development, a process where an underexposed film is developed for an extended period to adjust the medium gray tones to a standard contrast. This process is simplified with our rule of thumb for pushing a film: Plus 1 Stop (e.g., transitioning from 400 ASA to 800 ASA) involves developing time multiplied by 1.33, and Plus 2 Stops (e.g., shifting from 400 ASA to 1600 ASA) requires developing time multiplied by 1.77.

This film developer is also ideal for processing challenging film types like the ADOX ORTHO 25, yielding negatives that can be printed on a grade 2 paper. Its superior equalizing capacity ensures smooth gray areas in your portraits and landscapes, without excessive acutance, enhancing the overall quality of your images.

The Atomal ATM 49 Film Developer comes packaged in three individual powder bags, partially vacuum sealed, allowing you to mix either 1 Liter or 5 Liters of stock solution as per your requirement. This developer can be diluted to be used as a one-shot developer at ratios of 1+1 or 1+2, providing flexibility in usage. Depending on the dilution, you can process up to 20 films, making it a cost-effective solution for your photography needs.

Whether you're capturing high-speed films with fine grain or seeking very good speed utilization, the Atomal ATM 49 Film Developer serves as a universal standard for all film types, enhancing your black and white photography experience.
