EI is the speed the film was rated at when shooting. Times marked “not yet verified” come from secondary sources and haven’t been checked against a manufacturer datasheet.

How they work together

Rodinal: Prominent grain, high acutance, full film speed, variable contrast. Sharp, dramatic, distinct edge effects.
Foma Bohemia Fomapan 200 Creative: Traditional cubic-grain emulsion with extended red sensitivity. Similar grain to Fomapan 100 despite being faster. Best results at EI 100-125.
Notes on this pairing: Higher contrast.
Stand development: Agitate first minute, then leave undisturbed for 1 hour.
