Diafine - Two part compensating developer
Not the best image in the world but I like the detail in the snow! Hard to do with digital.

Just wanted to post a short article on the developer that I am currently using.
Diafine compensating film developer is really a great developer from a film scanning point of view. The negatives have a large mid-tone range with open shadows and controlled highlight. This is great for scanning because we have no trouble getting at all the information in the negative. Much like a RAW digital file. Scanners love it.
It is also very easy to use and cheep! Everything I have learned about this wonderful developer I learned from Stephen Schaub over at The Figital Revolution.
Here is the start of a wonderfully informative series of articles that Stephen Schaub wrote about how to develop and scan with Diafine. Please visit his site, there is a wealth of info there and it is for all skill levels. He makes learning about every thing film very easy to understand.
