kodaktrix Posted February 9, 2009 Share #21 Posted February 9, 2009 Advertisement (gone after registration) When I was in Cuba, I had to deal with the same problem as You. I love TriX but the light was much to bright. I used Ilford PanF at 100 ASA and developed in Diafine. To my mind this combination matches the charakter of TriX very good.

Advertisement Posted February 9, 2009 Posted February 9, 2009 Hi kodaktrix, Take a look here TriX Alternative at 100?. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
fuerst Posted February 9, 2009 Share #22 Posted February 9, 2009 Another vote for Plus X and D76 combination here. Bojan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NB23 Posted February 9, 2009 Share #23 Posted February 9, 2009 That's not been my experience with the film developed in Xtol. I took a lot of the film on a trip to Greece a few years ago, and if anything, based on the negatives from that trip, I'd say it was fine grained. Maybe. But then, all the other 100 films will be even finer grained then APX100, no matter how you turn it. I vouch for PlusX, my personal favorite film ever. But if a Tri-X look is the goal, then APX100 is the one and only logical choice. Still fairly widely available. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter_n Posted February 9, 2009 Share #24 Posted February 9, 2009 Agfapan 100 or Fomapan 100. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgoetzin Posted February 14, 2009 Share #25 Posted February 14, 2009 Don't use the Delta 400 for bright sunshine.It's good for english weather situations. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystic Posted February 14, 2009 Share #26 Posted February 14, 2009 Í really like the Delta 100 but the Acros 100 is pretty nice as well Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Photoskeptic Posted February 14, 2009 Share #27 Posted February 14, 2009 Advertisement (gone after registration) Go for the Delta 100. I've had great luck shooting it in the Caribbean. I also absolutely love Efke 25. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NB23 Posted February 14, 2009 Share #28 Posted February 14, 2009 But why do people recommend Delta films? Films with Tabular grain technology are exactly the opposite of Tri-X. Weird! Does anyone actually read the Original posts? I'm astounded that Kodacolor Gold wasn't already mentioned... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stunsworth Posted February 14, 2009 Share #29 Posted February 14, 2009 But why do people recommend Delta films? Films with Tabular grain technology are exactly the opposite of Tri-X. Weird! Does anyone actually read the Original posts? Perhaps people have mentioned Delta because the original poster wrote... "Now trying Delta, which I will soup in DDX. What do you think?"

NB23 Posted February 14, 2009 Share #30 Posted February 14, 2009 Perhaps people have mentioned Delta because the original poster wrote... "Now trying Delta, which I will soup in DDX. What do you think?" To the question, one obviously has to answer that it's the opposite of Tri-X in its grain structure, therefore being a bad choice if the goal is to have a trix-like image.
