Ilford Perceptol is an extra fine grain powder developer for black & white films. Negatives developed in this powder produce stunningly sharp enlargements and offer greater definition and detail than even the most popular standard fine grain developers.

Specially formulated for maximum sharpness and detail, Perceptol exploits the superb grain structure of medium and slow speed films such as Delta 100 Professional, FP4 Plus and Pan F Plus. It also produces significantly finer grain in faster films such as, Delta 400 Professional, HP5 Plus and Delta 3200 Professional (when compared with a standard fine grain developer).

Chloe ★★★★★

Switched over to this developer for my Tri-X negatives and the extra sharpness in the grain structure is exactly what I was hoping for. Made a test print at 11x14 and the detail in the highlights is visibly cleaner than what I got from my last formula.

Evelyn S. ★★★★★

Mixed a liter for some HP5 rolls and the powder dissolved without any fuss, which is more than I can say for some other developers. The negatives came out with that extra fine grain look right away, and the detail in the highlights is honestly stunning when I print big.

Matthew M. ★★★★★

Mixing up a batch of this developer was straightforward, and the first roll I developed came out with noticeably finer grain than my usual results. Those shadow details really popped in my 11x14 enlargements, which is exactly what I was hoping for.
