I've always touth that Ilfor HC-D is similar to Kodak HC-110. I've used a lot the combination HP5+ and HC-110. I believe is a very good pair. HC-110 an be found quite easili both in Europe and in USA. You might think to use that instead of Ilford HC. cheers - -francesco - -------------------------------------------------------------------- Francesco Ricci, IRST, Loc.
