Mixing my own D-23 — worth it?

Gareth Hopkin·21d ago

Thinking about mixing D-23 from raw chemicals — just metol and sodium sulfite. Is the tonality really that different from D-76, or am I romanticising it?

It's softer and lovely for portraits. Two-bath D-23 is the real magic though — incredible highlight control on high-contrast scenes.

Worth it just for how cheap and simple it is. Two ingredients and it keeps forever as a stock.
