I followed the thread on rec.photo.darkroom too...havent tried Tech
Pan in Rodinal but Ive been told the contrast is v high in anything
other than Technidol.  Ive just been taking pics of craters on the
moon with Tech Pan, sadly no Leica glass they dont make a 1200mm f8 -
6" reflector and I couldnt afford it if they did, the Tech
Pan/Technidol worked nicely though.

Tech Pan is just so damn expensive here compared to APX25.
