Ilford HP5 Developing
Hi all,
I've done E-6 processing and have a roll of this Ilford B&W HP5 film. I never did B&W before  I figure its straight forward. What Chemicals and whos should I use. I am eyeing... (spiral Tank) Ilford DD-X Ilford IlfoStop Ilford Ilfotol Do I need the wash aid? Will these have or be affected by a tank used for E6 and vise/versa? Any suggestions on 'other' chems are appreciated. Thanks all Martin

Will these have or be affected by a tank used for E6 and vise/versa? Make sure you clean the tank well, and it should be OK, I used to do B&W and C41 all the time, using the same tank. Just make sure you wash using dish detergent and rinse thoroughly, then make sure everything is dry..... W

If you don't want to wash your film for 30 minutes you should use wash aid. Cuts the wash time down to 5 minutes. No, but you will need some fixer.....

I always process HP5 in Ilford ID-11 (or Kodak D76 - same thing). Dilute 1+3 20'C 22 minutes Don't bother with a stop bath - just use 2 water rinses. Any Fixer will be OK - I use Ilford Hypam Wash in 5 changes of water - agitating well between changes. Tanks can be used for multi purposes - just make sure you wash WELL between uses so no contamination occurs. Best wishes Ray
