HP5+ versus TMax 400 (TMY)

from Dana H. Myers (Dana@Source.Net)
HP5+ is a very nice "traditional" style of film, while TMY is a sharper, finer-grained "modern" T-grain film. TMY is essentially a straight-line film, with no shoulder and a fairly short toe, while HP5+ has more of a toe and a shoulder.

Processed in Xtol, HP5+ and TMY both easily give a real film speed of 400. HP5+ will tolerate under-exposure somewhat more.

Me? HP5+ is very nice, but I vastly prefer TMY in Xtol.
