Things have changed in 15 years, sometimes for the better, sometimes for the worse. I'd strongly recommend the purchase of The Film Developing Cookbook by Stephen Anchell and Bill Troop. ISBN 0-240- 80277-2 from Borders or B&N. This book has the best treatment of films and developers I've seen to date. Though I still like Tri-X, they also have high regard for Ilford HP5+ and Agfa APX400. They also explain the reasons why t-grain films often don't give satisfactory results. Great stuff!(posted 8867 days ago)
