Virgin here: Freestyle have D76?

[CopperB]

I'm gathering my gear together in prep for jumping off of the cliff into developing film at home. D76 comes highly recommended for a noob like me but I can't find it on Freestyle. I'm wondering if they've got a 'rebagged' version or if I should be looking to order from someone else. I'm in Ontario.

Just checked the Freestyle website and D-76 is available, but is currently out of stock until January 19th.

You can also buy Arista 76 from Freestyle, which is D-76.

It looks like freestyle is out of stock although their Arista 76 will be the same. Adorama has D-76, use the powdered Kodak fixer and you are good to go.
Good luck, keep us posted.

Just checked the Freestyle website. Legacy-Pro 76 is also exactly like D-76.

So I'm blind. Is it listed as Kodak D-76? I couldn't see it to save my life.

Have them send you a catalog. Good reading.

Here's D-76. Although...

You can also use Ilford's ID-11. It's the same thing as D76, and closer to the original D76 formula.

Except from D76 or ID11 you can also use Fomadon P W37, all the same. D76 you can get in larger volumes for 5 ltr. 1 gallon (3,8 ltr.) and 1 ltr. Fomadon P W37 in 1 ltr.
When looking for a substitute for Xtol (5 ltr. only packing) you can also use Fomadon Excel W27, available in the 1 ltr. packing. It's almost the same.

D76 is packed in one volume. ID11 and Fomadon P is a two powder packing. Xtol and Fomadon Excel W27 is also a two powder packing.

Due to the fact D76/ID11 is a published formulae other brands with the same content is available. You can also make it yourself from scratch.

If you are in Ontario you can get everything you need from Henrys. Unless you are buying a load of stuff, Freestyle shipping will make it very expensive for you. You can also get the developing tanks very cheaply second hand if you keep your eyes open and frequent kijiji and similar sites.
