This is news to me, as it was my understanding Pancryptol yellow was to slow
developer to allow the high level of SOD sulfite to accellorate the
developer; and now that you interject the acutance enhancement quality it
would seem this developer is one of the most efficient ever designed.
Further reason to stay with it, which is not hard given my results.
Although, I too would like to know how Pancrptol yellow enhances acutance.
