After several years and few thousands B&W films (35 mm and 120) developed with Paterson tanks by inversion, I will soon have to develop 4 x 5 negatives with a Jobo 2500 series tank. Since I tend to be very skeptical about the consistency of the developing by rotation, I was wandering if I can get good results with the inversion method (I am using Rodinal in a 1+50 dilution that is very effective and inexpensive so the consumption of developing agent is not an issue for me). I am wondering now if the Jobo 2500 model that can accommodate one reel offers enough displacement for the proper agitation of the liquid inside the tank or if I have to purchase the tank which can accommodate two reels (loading it with only one reel), that will certainly give the developing solution a good agitation. Moreover I would like to know if anyone had experience with Forte 200 film developed in Rodinal (I find that the 120 rolls give very good results).
