On the other end of the spectrum, I used Panatomic-X with Microdol-X, and it gave me very small grain and the worst sharpness I've ever seen. I haven't done much B&W in the past 20 years, but I'm going to try Pan-F with Rodinol. - -----Original Message----- From: owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us [mailto:owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us] On Behalf Of Mark Rabiner Sent: Tuesday, December 11, 2001 2:15 PM To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us Subject: Re: [Leica] Pink haze correction ><Snip> > >Well Rodinal + Agfa APX 400 is one of worst combo I've ever seen.

But the tonality and sharpest will really be something!
