What Dilution HC-110 Do You Recommend for 4x5 HP5 Portraits? What's The Capacity?

CE

Neither the person nor I use IG, not a model. We had 2 sessions.

The lens is German, Imagon no shutter, Packard shutter, Strobes.

Biggest holes wide open

Look them up. I wanted the OOF pearls and SF

I may get yelled at but is same model. with DIGI and strobes

I offer it as comparison.

I'd like to see and example if you have one! Nice signature, by the way.

I won't use HC110 as it is too thick to measure easily and accurately

A syringe solves that problem .

Allegedly the newest rendition of HC-110 is somewhat more fluid. But the problem with a syringe is just like using one of those to precisely measure honey. It's sticky, and ordinary capillary effects don't apply well. I have my own method, but not time to explain it at the moment.

It wouldn't matter if you measured the syrup with a shoe as long as you did it the same every time...people have used the syringe method for how long??
Repeatability is what counts in chemistry...the margins of error are already factored in by the manufacturer
