Adox Rodinal
I used Rodinal in all sorts of B&W development—as part of a cocktail solution, in a standing development, or just using different dilutions on different film brands. All those results were positive. It was such a versatile developer. People would say Rodinal's characteristics are its edge-hardened grain, contrasty, and "raw" feel aesthetic. I agree totally.
I used it on Tmax, TriX, Delta, Neopan Acros and HP5plus... all a fun experience! There were times that I found it too grainy, but I guess one can try and control it as he/she gets more experience with this wonderful developer.
