Herr Barnack Posted January 16, 2018 Share #1 Posted January 16, 2018 Advertisement (gone after registration) I have pushed Tri-X to ISO 1600 with good results but I never though it was possible to go to 6400 without a serious loss of image quality. Kodak Tri-X is truly a dynamic and capable emulsion; it's all in the processing... 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted January 16, 2018 Posted January 16, 2018 Hi Herr Barnack, Take a look here Kodak Tri-X pushed to ISO 6400 with excellent results. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
Martin B Posted January 16, 2018 Share #2 Posted January 16, 2018 (edited) I am not a big fan of Tri-X at ISO 400, but I also have seen much better results with it when pushed to ISO 3200. Edited January 16, 2018 by Martin B Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
digbyhp Posted January 17, 2018 Share #3 Posted January 17, 2018 Thanks for posting - the sample photos at the end are a surprise in that there is still good shadow detail in many of them. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ko.Fe. Posted January 17, 2018 Share #4 Posted January 17, 2018 Most of the examples are taken in daylight. Only few in moderate low light and it seems nothing for where I want to push my BW at this speed. I'm not considering it as good enough test. Years ago at RFF forum someone post the scans from Polypan F (dirt cheap surveillance film) exposed at different speeds and pushed highly under normal light. Results where fine. I did it as well. If you push film during daylight all you do is overexposing it. And film will forgive it. I prefer HP5+. For price, emulsion and handling. Pushing it not for sensational acts of glory on internet among amateurs , but just using it where it makes sense. Low light, street photography. HP5+ @3200 at night.
