Delta 400 - ID-11 or HC-110

[Peter_S]

Hi all!
I have a quick question: I have a roll of Delta 400 and Neopan 400 I want to develop on the weekend. My DD-X may be dead (1 year, undiluted - OK perhaps?) and I have HC-110 and ID-11 left.

What would you use for the Delta, HC-110 or ID-11? I take sharpness over lack of grain.

I shot the roll of Delta on a GF670/Bessa III (contrasty lens) with a yellow filter, but in rather dull light - and rated ASA 400.

Any advice is appreciated.

Cheers!
Peter

I've not used it myself but I believe that Ilford's recommendation for their Delta films is ID-11. I also found several references to using the pair together, except the 3200 in which another developer was recommended.
