Response to Ilford FP5 or TMAX 400?

Now you have to decide whether the better grain or better general performance fits your needs. Or, use both for different subjects. Be aware that the TMax will vary greatly if you are not a good and consistent film processor. Sloppy work will guarantee results that are not repeatable. It is a PRO film and is intolerant and unforgiving if you aren't shooting to tight standards. HP5+ is a lot like triX in that it is easy to work with. Both films will push very well to 3200 and points inbetween. Both work well. It is personal choice and how comfortable you feel with them.
