je2a3: Yes. I do rodinal all the time with UFX 400 in 120 format.
because of the different climate, i use different timing here in Singapore.
* i pre-soak for a couple of mins. Most people are ambivalent to pre-soak. but it works for me.
* i rodinal stand for 20 - 30 mins at my 30C room temperature water. If your water is
around 20C like most folks, then an hour of rodinal stand is probably a good idea.
* I also do mid-point agitation of a couple of turns, in my case, around the 15mins mark.
It works fine for me for many rolls. Your mileage may vary. Do your testing and report the results 😉

Nice result...thanks for the info! I usually use filtered/chilled water ~ 18C and let it stand in an air-conditioned room 23C ambient temp for an hour. But good to know about the 30C/20-30 min. tropic/stand 😉

je2a3,
actually i have tested with various stand method: todinal , hc-110, and prescysol EF. for HC-110, the timing must be shorter for 1:100 dilution.

Well-known
Just an update for those who do own printing: Ultrafine VC Elite RC paper is not bad. To my feeling a bit thinner then Ilford or Oriental and develops quite quickly in relatively slow ZonalPro Factor One I was using. It is for sure worth the money.
Still one more item to test : Ultrafine silver eagle FB varigrade DW paper.
