I'd guess Xtol wins on > grain. I'd like to know how high of a magnification you'd have to go before ANY grain was visible! I can never find any! I'd think the issues at stake would be ones overall look, tonality, separation and smoothness of different parts of the curve. I can't focus on grain with a grain magnifier with that stuff. No grain magnifier I've ever used could ever detect any. But I've used Agfapan 25 in lieu of that stuff for years. With Rodinol I can just makeout a grain pattern with Agfapan 25. But with no other developer! Mark Rabiner
