The best HC110 available.

HC = HC-110, great as always

HC-110 (now, "HC") is my most-used versatile developer. Long shelf-life, easy to mix, and good gradation. Back in 2024, the current manufacturer of HC-110 (Photo Systems, Made in USA version) announced the name was changing from "HC-110" to "HC" or "High Concentrate Developer". I have included the snippet from the press release below, but for anyone who wants to read it in full, you can find it on Photosys's website. --- [...] effective immediately, the highly concentrated film developer formerly known as KODAK PROFESSIONAL HC-110 will now be identified as KODAK PROFESSIONAL HIGH CONCENTRATE DEVELOPER, and the paper developer formerly known as KODAK PROFESSIONAL DEKTOL will be identified as KODAK PROFESSIONAL PAPER DEVELOPER. This change comes as a resolution to prevent conflict or confusion with a previous brand licensee that had used the trademarks FLEXICOLOR, DEKTOL, and HC-110 and retained U.S. trademark registrations. In accordance with instructions from Eastman Kodak Company, these products have been renamed, ensuring clarity in the market while maintaining the original product formulations. As the current brand licensee, Photo Systems Inc. holds the rights to use certain trademarks and trade dress under license from Eastman Kodak Company, continuing to deliver these classic products to the photography community. ---

What’s the shelf life for the concentrate? When does it expire?
Asked by: Kyle
I've used it up to 5 years later and it worked fine. My bottle has always been well sealed, so maybe that has helped. The solution has turned red, but it worked! I wonder how long after it's opened it will continue to work. Maybe I'll try a test roll in a year or two and report back.

Asked by: a
The Kodak Professional HC-110 Film Developer turns brown due to oxidation from exposure to air. This is normal and the developer will still work fine.

What is the dilution ratio from concentrate when developing 100 Tmax and 400 Tmax? Also what is a standard development time?
Asked by: Bob
This is not a concentrate from which you mix batches of developer, like D-76, this is a one-shot (single-mix, single-use) developer, very similar to Rodinal. My preferred ratio is 1:25 for 8 minutes at about 70°F. That works pretty well with all the films I shoot (PanF, Ortho80, RPX25, FP4+, and HP5+)

How does this compare to the original HC110, are the dilutions from concentrate the same?
Asked by: Stuart
The dilution is not exactly the same as the original. The best thing is to do a test run or two to hone in on the best mix, time and temp for the film you are using.
