What Films Work Well In Rodinal?

APX100 & Ilford FP4+ in Rodinal 1:50 is a nice, easy and very forgiving combination.

Anything faster is HC110 or Microphen.
 
I'm not sure if people know the reasonfor the "grain" when developing film in Rodinal. My apologies if you already know. Rodinal is high accutance film deveolper, and by virtue, it will accentuate the silver grains in the film. At 1:50, with a variety of B&W films, it will produce negatives with a long tonal scale and high sharpness, provided the images is in focus!

I love it with HP5.

Cheers.
 
I use the Jobo CP2 processor for my film development.
Has anyone development times for Tmax 100/400 (35mm & 120) in Rodinal with rotational agitation?

i have a friend who- among his many great qualities, photographer, designer, inventor, etc, has considerable darkroom experience. he recommends establishing a baseline for experiments with rodinal, to use with just about any film you are interested in- at 68F, dlution 1:100, time:21 minutes, agitation 5-7 sec each minute. further, he recommends not using an acid stop- a practice i too gave up long ago with other film developers. through a lot of experimentation, trial and error, you'll arrive at what works well for you and your personal vision. film is cheap, shoot a lot.
