I don't make a habit of mixing speeds and brands, but it's nice to know it will work in a pinch. I've tried adding more time for pushing, but didn't really notice a huge difference, maybe I'll do some more empirical tests... but it's been working fine so far. If it ain't broke, don't fix it 
I've done C41 in Rodinal and while it's not the best it does work, much better than I thought it would. Not a replacement for regular B&W film, but nice for testing new cameras and techniques.

R09 and Adonal
R09 and Adonal
Hello, I have been developing with R09 one shot for some times with consistent results in Semi stand (1+100 in about 800ml water for two rolls one hour).
I recently changed to Adonal that is supposed to be same. But my tri-x rolls came out very, very contrasty. That put me on stress. How could Stand bring to excessive contrast.
Second question: I also use Kentemere K400 dev in stand, same method. Opposite results, since these are always too flat in stand. Is giving more agitation, like a couple of inversions every 20 minutes, solving the problem and kicking a bit this lazy (but quite good) film? Thanks a lot. Jean-Marc.

I've been having fun with Rodinal stand development and enjoyed this tutorial. I know it's not ideal, but I essentially set a roll of HP5+ to 1/30sec at f/1.4 and didn't bother to meter indoors vs outdoors at night. I'm guess the EI was somewhere between 200 and 3200.
here's a shot i liked that had some nice halos around street lights. I scanned flat/positive and used negfix8 then onto LR for the rest.
