Re: Grainy Pictures

Sorry for the late reply, I've only just spotted this thread.

Any chance that your film was over-exposed?

Or, I wonder if the lab used a "universal" developer when developing your film? At least it suggests that the prints were done with a half-decent enlarging lens!

I've not used HP5 that often, but "very grainy" on a 10 x 8 print sounds wrong to me.
