andrew_buckley1 Posted May 30, 2001 Share Posted May 30, 2001 I would like to try using ID-11 for HP5 and FP4. For HP5, the package suggests times for 1+0, 1+1 and 1+3 and i was wondering how this effected the 'look' of the final negative? Previously i have used Ilfosol S and the suggested development times @ 1:9 dilution. Will i notice any marked difference between this and ID-11? <p> Many thanks in advance <p> Andrew Buckley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j._patric_dahl_n Posted May 30, 2001 Share Posted May 30, 2001 ID-11 (D-76) 1+1 will give you sharper negs but a little larger grain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricardo_spanks Posted May 30, 2001 Share Posted May 30, 2001 the greater the dilution, the longer it will take to develope. the longer the film is is developer, the more pronounced the grain will become. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michael_devoue Posted May 30, 2001 Share Posted May 30, 2001 I haven't used the Ilfosol S with HP5 or FP4, But I have used it with Delta 100 and love the results at 1+14, 10 min., inversions for 5 sec. every minute. Does well in high contrast scenes, but I wouldn't shoot in low contrast situations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scott_walton1 Posted June 1, 2001 Share Posted June 1, 2001 As someone stated, the more dilution, the longer the development but the more the developer "acts" like a compensating developer and usually gets to be a fine grain type developer. It's really a judgement call if you want to stay in the soup for 20+ minutes or... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
george_papantoniou Posted June 8, 2001 Share Posted June 8, 2001 Compensating developers do not offer finer grain. Higher acutance and accentuated edge effects, yes. If the agitation is not too strong... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
