developing TriX in Ultrafin Plus

[lubitel]

I am kind of new to developing. Some people rave about TriX film and rodinal combination. I shot a few rolls of TriX, the only developer I have is Ultrafin Plus. Does anyone have experience with this developer? Is it also good for pushing? Or is Ultrafin better suited for other films like Ilford?

thanks

Ultrafin appears to be optimised for "new-tech" films like TMax or Delta. I have to say that I've used a couple of developers described like this (DD-X and FX39) and "conventional" films work just fine in them. In fact HP5 in DD-X was my favourite combination for a couple of years. I can't see that Ultrafin would be radically different from these formulations, so I'd say go for it. I've found data for Ultrafin herehttp://www.jobousadarkroom.com/instructions/instructions_tetenal_ultrafin_liquid.htm
