APX100 is a very good film to start. Develop it in Xtol 1:1 and observe the results.(rodinal 1:50 is not bad too, but for 35mm I like XTOL more). For architectural purposes, I'd recommend Ilford's Delta 100 (it's sharper, but less contrast), also in XTOL 1:1. Paper: I like FB more, but it's more tricky to handle, but easier to tone. Use for starters Ilford's MG IV (RC), M44 (pearl matte).(posted 8456 days ago)I uniformly develop my prints in Agfa Neutol WA. I use a citric acid signal stopbad, and Agfa Agefix Rapid fix. Otherwise follow the link I posted 2 threads below, "Beginner"
good luck
