Hi

I am searching for a fine grain film (and a developer for it) for use in my
studio. I have powerful lamps so film speeds like 12 or 25 ISO aren't a
problem.
Which will you recommend.

Try Ilford PanF+@25  in Perceptol or Ilfosol. Efke 25 in Rodinal Special (
Studional ) or Rodinal is even better !
But ... in my opinion Kodak Technical Pan @25 in Technidol or in Rodinal
1+100 is best available !

Very careful technique always gave me good results with Tech Pan and
Technidol.  I keep seeing references to Photog Formulary's TF-3 being
a forgiving soup for Tech Pan (just again today in photo.net).  If
your optics are up to it, Tech Pan is pretty amazing stuff.

    And yes, it's very good. About the sharpest film developer
I've ever tried with Tech Pan.
