I find Vista's 400 better than 200

 

 

I also like it a lot, and it was even better as I got a load from the Poundshop.  Great colour for a cheap film, unfortunately I've run out now  :(

My favorite film, Kodak BW400CN, is no longer available so I'm trying to find another.

This is XP2 Super. Not convinced yet, so am also trying T-Max 400 and Acros 100.

The film is absolutely better. Numbers tell nothing, your eyes will tell everything.

 

It was took in Kunming China. The film is Ektar 100. My camera is Leica M3+Summicron 50 collapsible.

Second shot after a hasty reload is with Tri-X.  I think I could quite get to like these 6 x 9cm negs!

 

I can see why !

Can I ask if you had any filter attached or did much post-processing the tonal range and contrast is excellent? Thanks.

Back to Liverpool. Museum of Liverpool.

M7 with Zeiss 50mm on HP5. I am pretty sure I am not overdeveloping these films so the grain must be down to my scanning.

In fact the grain is not too bad on the one above, but this one certainly appears more grainy.

David - I had a skylight filter on the lens (am awaiting a medium yellow which will then take up residence).  Imported into LR (CC), clicked on 'auto' then tweaked the sliders slightly.  So no, post-processing was quite minimal.  I rate the Tri-X at ISO 320 then dev in 1:50 Rodinal for 11mins 45secs.

Distant views - looking NW from just below the Ridgeway. Another from this week's test of my 'new' GW690II, Tri-X, Rodinal.
