510 Pyro – B&W Film Developer Zone Imaging

510 Pyro is a super-concentrated B&W film developer that will give your images exceptional detail and minimal grain.

We will ship your 510 Pyro with an oral syringe (pictured) – for easy dosing of the small volumes that make 510 Pyro such an economical method of home development!

It is produced by independent UK manufacturer Zone Imaging:

“510 Pyro is a modern staining and tanning developer which offers extreme fine grain, high acutance, very long tonal range and a long shelf life (6+ years)

“An award-winning developer, 510 Pyro is one of the more modern pyro developers, that was invented by Jay DeFehr, offering exceptional fine grain, sharpness, more than 6 years shelf life, maximum image stain and minimal general stain and is suitable for rotary processors too

“The stain offered by this developer gives extraordinary shadow recovery in direct digitisation of negatives; incredible highlight separation for darkroom printing and more density for highlights when using UV based alt process printing methods.”

Please note that it’s recommended you don’t use acidic stop baths or fixers as they partially remove the staining. Instead, Zone Imaging recommends using water as a stop bath and either an odourless or alkaline fixer.
