Rodinal looks fine to me.  You might try Hyfinal if you want a little less " 
snap".  It's totally personal.

  Hi Everyone,



  This "Donkeys in WIlliston, VT" series are the first three results from the 
roll of Neopan 400  I processed in my "old" Rodinal 1:50 for 11 minutes (as 
recommended on the Rodinal box and the "Massive Development Chart"):

  It got a bit too contrasty for my taste so I struggled a bit to make it work 
in the digital environment and I know the negs won't be a pleasure to work with 
in the darkroom.  Perhaps the developer was a tad too cold (1/2 a degree 
Celsius) ??
  Two pictures ot the Montreal olympic tower against the blue sky are worthless 
becasue the sky and tower ended up almost white in white  (on this note: I am 
looking for a clean Bay II orange filter!)


  I may go back to Sprint Developer or D76 for Neopan 400.  Definitely need a 
softer result for "Mother and baby" shoot I have planned with my 3.5E.  
  Any suggestions?

    I've used 5+ year old stuff that was not brown, but BLACK.  Worked fine.
