The uncoated Tessar on the Welta is plenty sharp for medium format work, but is prone to flaring, so it seems like something post-war will be a more fair challenge for the Tri-X.Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00776670666673938282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423901.post-81677588988439666872021-03-21T21:18:42.811-06:002021-03-21T21:18:42.811-06:00Nive results!

I used the Tri-X 320 film a lot in the 1980s and 1990s, but I cannot recall exactly why I chose it rather then Tri-X 400. I use the 400 version now because it is the current product, and I cannot claim that it is better, worse, or about the same as the discontinued 320 film. Try a bit longer development time, but EI=125 or 160 should be fine.Kodachromeguyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09234925040052813302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423901.post-56912339943094142852021-03-21T18:43:44.830-06:002021-03-21T18:43:44.830-06:00Hard to beat free film, whatever the age.

Tri-X does not seem to hold up quite as well as the slower, fine-grained film, but I'm looking forward to using the remaining five rolls with what I've learned from the first one.Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00776670666673938282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423901.post-46979000172393767522021-03-21T18:06:20.349-06:002021-03-21T18:06:20.349-06:00I'd say you got some great results for 30 year...I'd say you got some great results for 30 year old film.

I have had good luck with some of the slow black and white film stocks--30, 40 years expired...but not in this ASA range. Love the shot of the stairs!JR Smithhttp://www.fogdog-photography.comnoreply@blogger.com
