Test drives on a Voigtlander Vitomatic have come up with a bit more grain than I would like.
First outing, HP5+ :
so next roll FP4:
And well, pretty lumpy.
Both developed in D76 1:1, with the usual care on temp time agitation and all that stuff. Scanner isn't to blame as negs from files coming out OK. Heard that D76 at 1:1 dilution results in grain but this much? Also stock solution is approaching its best before date but still within specs.
Can anyone shed any light on this and is D76 a compatable developer for Ilford film.
Thanks D
