These are two identical shots, using the same camera, on the same film, with the same exposure. The only difference is one is developed in HC110B and the other in Rodinal 1:50
I am a newbie at anything other than HC110, so it's a bit frustrating to have to start all over with getting used to a new dev. I wanted something with a bit more "bite" so I tried Rodinal. I think it's obvious which was which.
Question is: Is this what I should be expecting? It looks to me not any sharper, just with more prominent grain. Any advice much appreciated!
Kodak Tri-X (400TX)
HC110B: 7' @ 20°C 1 inversion per minute
Rodinal 1:50 13' @ 20°C 1 inversion per minute
Negative scan, no processing.
