When manipulating images at high magnifications in PS, Acros looks much better in grain and sharpness than does Ilford PanF. I may try some Rodinal with PanF to see if that swings the pendulum the other way.

I'm testing this film (fomapan 200), but still need to shoot at least one more roll to end an early field testing . Anyway they are T-grain films, close to TMaX 100. I will rate it more or less like ISO 160, but again, it's just an informed guessing :) BTW, the R09 suffix in developers stand for early formulations of rodinal, you can find it under several brands like J&C, Calbe, Foma, Adox...
