Would love to be there for the open day but distance means it would be finished before I got there. Good luck and when I need new dev this will be on my shopping list.

What may help those who cannot make it and that may include me is those who do make it, post any interesting comments based on their visit
There are reps from a few firms there including Ilford so I'd have thought that there must be interesting snippets of information to emerge from the day Interesting that Ag has a Spursinn day when Bruce is also about to launch his Spursinn range. Maybe with at least two U.K. stockists Spursinn products will be easier obtained in the U.K. Thanks Mike |

new film and universal developers from Spürsinn
Spürsinn have just launched three new liquid developers. You may like some information from the press release:
Geminus—both a variable dilution paper developer, yielding prints with great detail and maximum blacks, and an economical, fine grain one-shot film developer (dilution 1+29) producing negatives of normal contrast, usable for 35mm, roll and large format film. SAM Classic—a replenishable, high quality film developer formulated to especially produce silver-based images which suit contemporary tastes in image contrast, SAM Classic is a variable dilution film developer yielding negatives with smoothly graded contrast and a wide tonal range, suited to the majority of photographic subjects. SAM Velvet—offers the photographer more traditional contrast than SAM Classic, a particularly smooth rendering of subjects making it ideal for fine art photography, and enhanced tonal control through choice of dilution. Both SAM developers have push- and pull- capabilities and are replenishable, reducing volumes of water and constituent chemicals used, thereby minimising environmental impact. These complement the existing Spürsinn HCD-2 and HCD-S, an ultra-versatile, one-shot, single or twin bath black and white film developer which offers excellent tonal range, a choice of fine, normal or prominent grain to suit the subject, ultra-fast development capability, and excellent push- and pull-processing. Tri-X for example can exposed at speeds from 50 to 3200 ISO. Spürsinn photochemistry is imported into the UK by Keyphoto of Harpenden. We sell Spürsinn direct to education customers, and AG retail it to enthusiast - hence as Keyphoto's training and marketing manager I will be present at AG's open day this week to answer questions about Spürsinn products. For prices see our or AG's web site. I hope to see you there. I will have some special triall offers on HCD on the day. Thank you to the moderators for allowing me to post this information. |

Thanks jd. I have already asked some questions on a Spur HRX-3 thread with regard to the continuity of Spursinn products. One of our friends Bruce Robbins has said that the Spur and Spursinn relationship has broken down and in the future Spursinn will no longer receive Spur products
I has assumed that Spursinn HCD-2 and HCD-S were in fact Spur products but this may be a false assumption on my part Bruce hasn't replied to my post but perhaps you will confirm that the current range of Spursinn products including HCD-2 and HCD-S will continue and are unaffected by the "divorce" of Spur and Spursinn Thanks Mike |

Just to clarify my last post; Spursinn products are available through Keyphoto and AG....neither of us stock SPUR products.
