from Clyde Collier Photog Summary: I really like Tri-X for certain shots but it has its limitations. If you're looking for lots of contrast and grain then this is the film for you. However, if you are looking for a smooth finish and gradual tones, then you might want to try T-Max or another film. Of course some people will say that they can get smooth and gradual tones out of it, but film is only one piece of the puzzle. Paper, filters, and chemistry all play an important role in how tones work in a photo. I generally use Arista RC paper, D-76 film developer, and Dektol paper developer. This is not my primary film, but will use it when the situation calls for it, or if its the only film I can find, since it can still be bought at some drug stores. I say use it, but know when to use it. Strengths: Easy to find
Sharp contrast
Easy to develop
Timeless look and feel Weaknesses: Sometimes too much contrast
Can be pricier than other films Similar Products Used: Fuji Neopan 400, Neopan 1600, T-Max 400, T-Max 100, Tri-X 400 Customer Service: N/A
