Is this a good combination?

Developed normally, is it very grainy in 35mm?

Thanks for any help.

I have good result with good ol' Rodinal from Agfa for Agfas films. I am
really not into HC-110 for ISO 100 or less. Then I use Rodinal 1+50. Fine
grain and good tonal curve.

(Continued) I believe that Agfa films have this purple protection layer that
needs to be removed in the development. Rodinal removes this nicely. Try it

Haven't done the APX 100 in that combo, but have done APX400 - med format
120 without excessive grain.

It is for me. I'm sure other developers are better, but HC110 gives me so
much convenience for not losing much.

No. 8x10s have very little grain
