Rodinal will be more compensating at higher dilutions to a certain extent. (like
most developers)
You'll start to loose speed if you do it higher than 1:100.
1:100 it is in it's peak powers. VERY sharp with a halo effect in the highlights
that can't be beat with a stick!
I was into using it at 1:50 though for less overwhelming grain but great
sharpness! Stupendous with Pan F or Agfapan 25 or Tri X.
I'm not saying this against the T.E.C which I don't know from.
