For those of you wondering what's the best way to develop that Tri-X you shoot at night --
In a search for a best pushing technique I did a test of Tri-X @ 3200 and up in few developers.

If interested, read >this< (~3Mb in pdf format).

I am testing Neopan 400 at 3200 tonight. Thanks for using the super soup but I see we differ on the speed and the time. No problem as that is what we are all about... it could be the way you mix agitate or even the water you use.... I am glad you though did try it.

Film photography and the Soviet Union are not dead. Just downsized.

Hi Larry,

Well HC-110 dilution A is the same even in Soviet Union so does distilled water...it is more important how you meter and what the light is -- Tri-X AKA Arista Premium balanced for daylight;



my light was 2 candles and I metered for mid-tones (18% gray card in front of a subject).
B.T.W here Donald says super soup has HC-110 dil A and here he's suggesting B...I decided on A and it went good.

Then it is probably tungsten + fluorescent -- very different from candles.
