I have completely moved to Kodak Tri-X (rated at box speed or pushed to 1600 and 3200) or Kodak TMZ (at box speed or 6400)... For color work, I am using the new Portra 400 and 800... You are going to love Richard Photo Lab, they are the best lab in the world.

 

Cheers!

What happens if say using Tri-X you shot half the roll at 400 ISO and the other half at 1600 ISO. Is there any hope for proper development?

You put your lens off and put a small sticker through the film base when on B and locked. Then transport one exposure extra.

When developing you can feel where to cut the film. First part E.I. 400, second part E.I. 1600.

 

Then you have perfect development. A very simple system, also used when optimizing a new type of film.

 

Weddings, CN: Fuji Pro 400H

B&W depending on the circumstances any good iso 400 or iso 100 B&W film. I prefer Neopan 400 (E.I. 320).

But perfect results you can also get with Tri-X 400 depending in which developer E.I. 200- E.I. 400, push till E.I. 1000-1250 (Diafine).

Since film is cheap, I would just rewind the roll and put a new one in... Otherwise, you can follow Robert's recommendations.

Thank you so much!

In a pinch you could also stand develop a roll with mixed ISOs.
