I had heard that the new formula is designed to yield near zero base stain. I had also heard that it should be good for those wanting to use HP5+ for alternative process. I am interested just because I was told that Gordon was very excited about the ‘look’ of his silver prints from Max Pyro negatives.
The article, slated for the Nov/Dec issue of VC Magazine, says the developer should be available from B&S by the time of publication. So I would guess sometime near December we should be able to order some to try.
