Rodinol at what dilution? At 1:50 the efke 25 tones are great but is uneven regarding grain. I've been using a standard Beutler formula with promising results, but I've haven't been able to nail down the processing to my satisfaction. I also like the Pyro and DiXactol in this regard.
This may cause stress, but, Tmax 100 in Beutler does a nice job with the mids.
