Wayne has been known to be right. Occassionally. Plus-X looks sooooooooo nice!

I was lazy Sunday. I didn't want to spend time mixing Xtol. I developed two rolls of 120 Tri-X from the film crawl in Rodinal 1:50. Time from the Massive Development Chart with my BlackBerry. I applied my 20% Jobo fudge factor and came up with 11 minutes. The negatives look nice and scanned well. I think 10 minutes may be the magic number. The best part: my 120 negatives have very subtle grain. Not digital looking at all. Typical Rodinal sharpness. Tri-X and Rodinal are good. I need some Plus-X.

ps: I just remembered that I have the old Agfa chart for Rodinal. Tri-X in a Jobo drum @ 1:50 = 10 minutes. DUH! I hate when my CRS is acting up.

Rodinal became my favorite 4x5 developer for many years. It gives a look to the grain that is awesome.

Way more better than adding grain with Lightroom.

But seriously.........It's difficult to get grain to show with 4x5. The Tmax films in Xtol are grainless. Rodinal adds just a hint of grit that reminds the viewer that they aren't looking at digital.

Don't believe anything Wayne says. Tmax p3200 & Rodinal 1:50 & continuous agititation looks like the HP5+ and Diafine that Westley was talking about recently.
Back to the laboratory.

Which means you'll never run out. Which means you can never change developers. Which means you will be using Diafine forever.
