I pushed HP5+ to 800 at 1+50, 16minutes, agitation 5 seconds every 2 minutes. The results were printable, though contrasty. I didn't have guts to agitate every 5 minutes. I would be afraid of uneveness and banding around the film perforation. I have to give it try - it seems VERY promising.
For HP5+ I would try the same or just little shorter time as for Tri-X as the both films react to Rodinal very similiarly in my experience, just HP5+ tends to get more dense in highlights.

I've souped my HP5 in Ilfosol and pushed it without any probems to 800.

Would anybody mind reposting some of the images discussed here? I'd love to see what the excitement was all about, since I'm about to be shooting some pushed Tri-X and would love to use a better developer than the Sprint available at my school!

Wow, I'm very impressed. Thanks so much, I'll definitely be developing my Tri-X in Rodinal!
Since those were at 3200, I expect I'd get more shadow detail (though a bit less contrast) at 1600? And that would be developed for about 22 minutes, 1:50, 68 ºF (starting temp, at least), with the agitation method mentioned above, right?

Try 31 minutes. I'm pretty sure I quoted bad numbers before.
You're right that you'd get less contrast and a bit more shadow detail. You'll see much more than I show there, as I tend to throw away a lot of the shadows in post.
Thanks!

Aye, thank you jzietman for refreshing this thread, and prompting merciful to re-post some of his stellar images. I'm not much one for dancing from developer to developer (favoring Xtol and HC-110), but I might just have to go find a bottle of Rodinal...

Merciful, do you have any images shot at 1600 or 2400? I'd love to compare grain with the above, though the posted image size is small. Thanks again!

I don't usually do Tri-X with Rodinal but this photo is Neopan 400@1600 in Rodinal stand dev. 1:100 for 90min. Slow initial agitation for 30sec and 15sec very slow agitations at 60min and 30min marks.

Hey again merciful, you said you quoted bad numbers above. Do you still use the times for 3200, etc. mentioned earlier in this thread, or have you refined your process at all?

My film-processing (and -shooting, pretty well) days are behind me, but I think that you'd like around 41-43 for 3200 and about 54 for 6400.

Ride, dive, shoot.
I'm pushing 400 speed films to 1600 regularly. In fact, I'll be shooting at 1600 only on my 35mm gear this year as part of my new year challenge. Trix, HP5, Neopan 400 all working pretty good at 1600. I'm just simply developing with stock D-76 for longer time.
