Adonal is made to the same formulation as Rodinal and is an acutance enhancing film developer. You should achieve identical results, albeit that it offers more fine-grain while still enhancing sharpness and acutance.

It is a one-shot developer and cannot be re-used but can be used as a fundamental economic developer by diluting at 1+25 or 1+50 for most films. For specialist films, you can even use it at dilutions of 1+200.

We also suggest that when using high dilutions and small developing tanks, please make sure to apply on each film 35mm or 120 at least 5 ml of the concentrated developer. For sheet films, please make sure to use 5 ml of concentrate for every four sheets of 4x5 or one sheet of 8x10.

Isabella ★★★★★

First time using this developer and the fine-grain results on my medium format shots are noticeably sharper than what I was getting before. The 1:50 dilution ratio is super economical, so this bottle should last for dozens of rolls. Exactly what I wanted for pulling out detail in slower films.

Elizabeth W. ★★★★★

The sharpness on my negatives is unreal, but I was surprised how much finer the grain looks compared to the Rodinal I used before. This 500ml bottle has lasted me through dozens of rolls since a little goes a long way for stand development.

Steven M. ★★★★★

Mixed a liter of this for stand development last night and the negatives came out with that classic sharp, punchy look I was chasing. The acutance is really there, and the grain stayed tight even in the shadows. I’ve used Rodinal for years, and this behaves exactly like it should.
