Walt Calahan Posted August 6, 2009 Share #6 Posted August 6, 2009 Whatever is right for the image. But I'm a softy for Tri-X. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
j. borger Posted August 6, 2009 Share #7 Posted August 6, 2009 Advertisement (gone after registration) Some people call XP2 not real B&W film. But i also LOVE that film, especially in MF. For best results expose it as Iso 200- 320. Even wonder if starting homedeveloping B&W film again is worth the invonvenience. For the very few colorpictures i take: portra 400 nc.

Richard.no Posted August 6, 2009 Share #9 Posted August 6, 2009 My personal favorite is Porta 160NC and Ilford Hp5. How about you? I do indeed love Portra 160NC for color, and TMAX400 for bw. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finnkare Posted August 6, 2009 Share #10 Posted August 6, 2009 I have bought masses of other kinds too, of which I have a bunch left, but these are what I'd only like to keep available: PanF (slow b&w), Neopan 400 (medium speed b&w (haven't tried tri-x, though)), Neopan 1600 (fast b&w) E100G (slow slide (since Kodachrome is no more)), E200 (fast slide (pushed)) (on the rare occasions that I use color negative: Reala 100 (slow neg), Portra 400 VC (med neg), Portra 800 (fast neg)) Of those, I prefer to shoot mostly PanF and E100G.

Morten Grathe Posted August 6, 2009 Share #11 Posted August 6, 2009 I haven't shot film for years, and started again this winter. So far I am very fond of Kodak Plus-X and TRI-X 400. When going on vacation I plan on trying the Kodak E100G. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarton Posted August 6, 2009 Share #12 Posted August 6, 2009 Tri-X and Astia. I hardly ever use colour negative film any more as I find it extremely difficult to scan (and get processed properly) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MPerson Posted August 6, 2009 Share #13 Posted August 6, 2009 Haven't shot a roll of colour film since the late 60's. So B&W favourites: Tri-X - rated 100-1600, usually on the same roll. Plus-X - rated 125-400. APX 100 - box speed. Fomapan 100 - rated 160 Adox CHS ART 25 & 50 - box speed Developers- Rodinal, Diafine, HC110, FX-39, Panthermic 777.

micky Posted August 6, 2009 Share #14 Posted August 6, 2009 So what about the Ilford Deltas? Delta 100 is clearly the best film on the market in 135 format. Goes really well with the modern Leicalenses. That is if one likes sharpness and a bit of contrast. :) Micky Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
