I don’t normally shoot with black and white film but this is a can’t go wrong film to shoot with. Shipping from Adorama was a pleasant experience, shipping was more than I wanted but regardless, I’m still happy with this purchase.

I’m relatively new to film photography but from what I’ve been told, Kodak Tri-X is very “forgiving” and it’s really appears to be.

Film isn't something I shoot a whole lot. It's more expensive, it's difficult to get developed, it's more of a hassle than digital. But that doesn't mean we shouldn't shoot it. Photography is so often about accessibility and simplifying things down to make them easier to use. But sometimes having to work for an image is worth it. Regardless of the minor inconveniences, regardless of the small changes in workflow. Film is something that we, as photographers, should all shoot. It changes the way we take pictures. It makes us take a moment and think about what and why we're taking a picture. This film is gorgeous. If there was ever a black and white 35mm film that I'd recommend, it would be this one. I don't have a lot of experience with film, but this is a film that always draws me in. The pronounced contrasts in light and dark value, as well as in highlights, is mesmerizing. Overall, this film is excellent, and not overly expensive for a hobbyist or beginner. I recommend it to everyone.

I have taught b&w photography for 25 years and this is the only film I will ever use for student work. It is a forgiving film with wonderful range and ideal for the age group (12 to 15) I teach. It has only gotten better over the years.
