    Don't use Rodinal.. I've been using Rodinal with Fomapan 100 and while the sharpness is great I get a lot of grain... visible in prints 11x14 and up. Even when diluting to 1:200 and stand developing for 2 hours I still get grain... I'm going to be trying either XTOL or Accufine.. if that doesn't work out then I'll be changing films...
