Response to Diafine: Tri-x @ 1000-1600. Is this a joke?

Fred;

Yes, I have used lots of TMZ and I really love the film. The problem for me shooting the tunnel project has been moving from daylight to dark to really dark areas then back to daylight all during the same working day. I experimented with a spare M6 body with TMZ in it and swapped lenses when I needed the speed. It became clear to me that it wasn't working so I simply started using Diafine, rating Tri-X at 1200 in my two prime bodies. For a time it worked well. Its not a replacement for TMZ but it got me closer exposure wise and without a lot of equipment juggling. I am back to TMZ in a spare body...long story.

Good luck.
