From memory I used to get better results using agfa BW film through fine grain developer or D76 used 1dev:1water just watch your temputure as too warm it will bring up the grain. Pan F is not realy a good all round BW stock. More info on the Agfa site or Kodak site
Big Pix PS: The fine grain developer is not a brand name sorry memory gone on this one, maybe someone can help with the brand name Cheers ....bp....

A fine grain developer that I use to use was called Acufine. Then there was also Kodak's Microdol X developer which was for fine grain if I remember correctly. It seems like its contrast was pretty low.
Going the other way to get large grain we would sometimes use warm Dektol paper developer for Tri-X film. Hard work pays off in the future. Laziness pays off now.
