One roll of Ilford HP5+ film, one roll of Ilford PanF+, both shot at box speed, on 35mm rolls in the 120 tank. Trying Rodinal again, since my last result was so promising. The Massive Dev Chart gives a time of 60 minutes for both film stocks in Rodinal 1+100 as correct; I’m going to re-use the 1+75-ish dilution I used last time.

Pre-wet film. Mixed 6.5mL Rodinal in 400mL of water, poured that into the tank, then topped off the tank with water. Agitated 40x over first minute, then 10x over 15 seconds at 15:00, 30:00, and 45:00. Alternated orientation at each agitation to avoid uneven development.

After 60 minutes, disposed of developer, rinsed in 68 degree water, filling and emptying the tank until the water rinsed completely clear, then four more times. Fixed in Ilford Rapid Fixer 1+4 for 4.5 minutes (that’s now 29 rolls from this batch of fixer, 19 since replenishment), turning 10x over 15 seconds at the top of every minute. Recaptured fixer and rinsed for ten minutes, then emptied tank, added a few drops of Photo-Flo, filled tank again and agitated 20x, and hung negatives horizontally to dry.
