That's why...I get a similar look when I do tri-x in hc-110 at 1+64
Share some RF shots....

OpenLens, I don't think that's why. 1:25 and 1:50 are standard dilutions for Rodinal. Rather, that is why Rodinal is known to be one of the economical solutions (but best known for lasting long).
Also, the more diluted Rodinal results in slightly smaller grain, from some consumer experiences. Furthermore, agitation has to decrease as one dilutes Rodinal more, like for 1+100 agitate every other minute or so.
Anyway, that's the Rodinal + Tri-X combi, for those who like grain or need to have grain for certain shots.
Skip it if you're not into grain. Or if you're fine with HC110 achieving the same effect, then great, no need to spend or waste time
Anyway, I am OOT, sorry, this should be in the other section

With developers like HC-110 and Rodinal longer baths mean increased contrast and accuance which results in more apparent grain (grain doesn't actually "increase", it just becomes easier to see). This is true even though both are somewhat compensating and has nothing to do with agitation method but the total amount of time in the developer.OpenLens, I don't think that's why. 1:25 and 1:50 are standard dilutions for Rodinal.

At 1+100 you're getting close to standing development. Standing development is used a lot by LF photographers because it is convinient and gives you good shadow detail definition but is not often used by small and medium format photographers because the additional apparent grain is too noticeable (grain is almost a non-issue at 4x5
)err...I think, anyway.
Finally found time to make the drive down to stonehenge a couple weeks ago. It was the experience of a lifetime as i encountered sunshine, rain and snow all at the same time just walking around the circle. It was a day for freak weather and truly a mysterious place.... All shot on Velvia 100f using a my hasselblad xpan. B/W conversion done using channel mixer in CS3

In bright sunshine
From the surrounding area, dark clouds before the downpour

A picture of my son with a Canon 50/1.2 LTM mounted on my R-D1. The picture is rather soft, I think.
That's the characteristic of this lens... Shoot it in bw and it gives the "glow" look...

The lens may be backfocussing. Eyes soft but right collar & left headphone seem to be in focus. Left eye sharper than right eye too.:think:
A lot of fast lens tend to back focus. Try compensating for backfocus.
