Hello all,

First I would like to ask here if there is anyone who has for sale a "Photographic Graduate" for measuring quantity of liquid substaces (something like this one http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/21A5CW1JJDL._SL160_AA160_.jpg - a 150ml one would be ok).

For developing Ilford ID-11 would be ok ? (I saw in a article that its ok using it with many kind of films). Or Kodak D-76?

Thank you very much .

There is nothing photographically specific about it. Its a standard piece of laboratory equipment, called a 'measuring cylinder'. For example:

Cosmin, 150ml is too small for the amount of liquid needed for one roll of film. 135 film needs 300ml and 120 needs 500ml. A 600ml cylinder is much more useful.

If you want to use one of the highly concentrated liquid developers like DD-X you'll need to measure a small quantity and the larger cylinders aren't accurate enough. One about 50ml would be much better.

With ID-11 you first have to make the full 1 litre of the "stock" developer with the two packs of powders and warm water, so you'll need a graduated 1 litre container. Then when it's cooled you mix the "stock" with cooler water to make the quantity of working solution at the dilution you need.

Here's the ID-11 factsheet from the Ilford site:

Page 6 lists the times for developing non-Ilford films.

Hello and thank you.

I was thinking for a 150ml one because it would be more precise than a bigger one although not so precise like a 50ml one.

Thanks again.
