Well, it was asked many times as I can see in Google, but there are many different times suggested. I'd like to expose it at 125 or 100 ASA and develope in drum, for contact printing only, no scanning, no enlarger.. So if somebody use this combination and want to share his experience - please, let me know.
Thanks in advance
Igor.

There really is no substitue for doing your own testing, your methods and meter will be different to some degree from everyone else, so I would encourage you to test.

Having said this, here are my times:
FP4+
Rated: 125 ASA
Rodinal 1+50
Jobo 3010 Drum, Continous agitation
Temp: 68F
Normal: 7 min
Normal -1: 6.25 min
Normal +1: 8 min

Thanks Eric !
Yes, you are right about testing. Unfortunately, I have very limited quantity of FP4 sheets and don't think Iwill buy more, it is very expensive here in Spain. My film of choice is Foma 100, it's about 60% cheaper.
So, many thanks for your times, I will try them as starting point. I checked your site - great photos ! Your buildings serie is superb.
Thanks,
Igor.
