- I've used D-76, both 1:1 and straight, with T-Max 100 and 400

- few years back the lecturer from Kodak stated that T-Max was
- originally formulated with D-76 as THE developer. T-Max developer was
- formulated after-the-fact when it was shown that they needed a liquid

- You've gotten better results than me. I've had ok luck with d76
- and t-max 100, but with 400 found I needed the t-max developer.
- Even more so with t-max 3200. D-76 undiluted is better than 1:1
- with fast t-max, but the t-max developer still worked better for me.
