Default Agfa Ortho 25 dev



Hi,

I just shot a roll (120) of Agfa Ortho 25 that somebody had lying around for
quite some time.
Could anybody suggest the best developer and time for this film?
At the moment I have Rodinal and D-76 available. Are they any good?
TIA

Use Rodinal, it's an excellent developer and if Agfa's recommeded dev as
well. Their dev times etc are far more reliable than those published by
Ilford or Kodak

Either will work. Because the film is so fine grain it
will be fine grain even in the Rodinal although D-76 will
probably be finer.
I may have an old data sheet for this film if you don't
have recommended times.
The shelf life of this film should be very long so, unless
its been stored in the heat, its probably not fogged at all.
