I have been developing my Ilford 120 roll films with Ilfosol S and 3 in my Jobo CPP-2 rotary processor with very satisfying results.
Lately, I decided to give Rodinal a try, since I have a few bottles laying around. I have developed many rolls so far with no problems but i have yet to print them to really judge the results. I am thinking of going up to 50x60cm on some.
I haven't used Rodinal that much before but I know that it desires some special attention to deliver its most sharpness and I think I've read before that it doesn't work its fullest magic in a rotary processor.

My developing details details:

Film: Ilford PanF+
ISO: 50
Rodinal: 1-50 dil.
Temp: 20C
Dev. Time: 11min
Jobo Speed: 3 or P

What's the best way to maximise the potential of the combination of the triad PanF+, Rodinal and Jobo?

Here is an old thread on my experience of rotary processing Rodinal. In addition to the 1:100 nominal dilution, the ordeal of 8 changes of solution gives significant gaps in the process with only surface or intra-emulsion developer present. The implication is "stand" development in dilute Rodinal with rotary processing (untested in any comparison real stand development, though).
