I am Looking for a formula similar to (HC-110)

The biggest problem is when people get fixated on specific developers without understanding how substitutable they really are...

I agree with you a lot ,,
I made a great effort to change these ideas rooted in Egyptian minds,
- Some chemical raw materials have run out of me. I had to wait a while to be able to buy a new quantity from one of the suppliers.
Some young men came to me from the northern provinces. They asked me to get some developers.
- I had some amazing packages, all of them a AGFA (12.17.40.42. 70.) >> I gave them those packages, and I said to them, I will only get money from you after you try these formulas first and when you like it ,, I will get my money.
They liked it very much, especially (Agfa 12), and it is now very popular in the northern provinces.
- They said, he shows amazing human feelings.
- The developer (D76) is unpopular because it does not accurately express human emotions ,,, (this is what is said) ,,
- Personally, I am just a seller of optical chemistry (currently) ,, personally, as a photographer, I just love the color film, and I think that God has created the universe colored and not black and white - the black and white film from my view is like the cartoon movie a movie, you watch it and know exactly that it is a world My imagination is not real, yet you like it so much.

Last I heard (which admittedly has been a while, before I started doing my own B&W again around 2003) the last lab I took B&W film to was using T-Max in a replenishment system in an auto processor.

Photographic laboratories in Egypt and the Middle East differ greatly - we had close links with (ORWO) and with Eastern companies - so general taste is formed according to certain formulas.

For negatives for alt processes, I prefer FP4+ for regular use. I have used Dektol, Ilford Universal PQ, HC-110, and a couple of the pryo developers...and have made successful carbon prints and pt/pd prints from all.

I have a lot of crappy negs too. Don't know why I keep them...waiting for The Great Purge, perhaps...

Dektol (straight or 1:1, can't remember) for the neg for this image (4x10 carbon print):

You are a genius artist, man.
There is no argument.
I wish I could be like you.
