Not a HC-110 virgin anymore and some thoughts

Karthiks, I agree with Vieri about the pre wash. I did at first but now no. Here is one taken early morning with a seleium cell meter onboard my Agfa Optima IIs. I did Ansel method here on the new TriX.

I've taken a shining to 35mm Neopan 400 @ 400 ISO in HC-110, Dilution H. It makes a beautiful negative with a broad tonal range and creamy highlights.

The dev times for the two emulsions are different. With HC110 dil B at 68º F there is a minute's difference in dev time between Tri-X 320 and 400. You just can't use Ansel's time recommendations for Tri-X 400 since he used 320. That's all I was saying!:)

Ahhh I wasn't aware of that. Thanks for taking time to explain it to me :)

The shot looks good but somehow I can't see much of black or is it my monitor's fault? What times do you use?

The second shot is quite lovely :)
