Microphen is a proprietary Ilford formula.

ILFORD ID 68 is very close to the commercially available formulae and is interchangeable in practice.


Ilford tried reformulating ID-11 with Phenidone instead of Metol, and published a number of variations of the formulae, culminating in the one below. Finally they completely re-balanced the formula as ILFORD ID 68.
