      Never tried stand development with HC-110. Looks great!

      I take it Ernie, that this produced quite a "flat" negative?

      I agree this does look great.

      Thanks all - yes the neg is sort of flat, but scans really well and the usual contrast adjustment works fine without losing too much detail in the brighter areas. - I find that normally HC110 does tend to blow out the highlights really easily and this high dilution seems to remedy that a bit.

      Thanks all! - and Yes Paul I love my Isolette III with it's Solinar, I have a very Teutonic Jsolette too with an uncoated 85mm Solinar in a Compur rapid shutter amongst my collection of Isolettes, the Apotar triplet puts in a great performance as well.
