Best B&W Film Ever

By applesanity

from Washington, DC on 9/24/2008

Pros:

Accurate, Consistent, Good Tonal Range, Reproduces Well

Best Uses:

Action Shots, Photojournalism, Travel

Describe Yourself:

Photo Enthusiast

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

All the great ones used it - Cartier-Bresson, Winogrand.... Still better than anything one can whip up in Photoshop. Funny how software designers are creating plug-ins that recreate the look and feel of Tri-X. Just use Tri-X! Excellent tonal range, wonderful, raw grain. D76 1:1 and skip the photo labs.

Quite the Surprise

By pachelbel from highschool on 1/11/2008

Pros:

Accurate, Good Tonal Range, Reproduces Well, Sharp

Best Uses:

Artwork, Photojournalism

Describe Yourself:

Hobbyist/Enthusiast

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Normally, I'm not a big fan of Kodak products, and prefer Ilford films, yet I found the Tri-X to be unbelievable. I used T-Max a few times and was terribly offended by the results, brining about my prejudice towards Kodak. Tri-X has proven me dreadfully wrong.

My alltime favorite film

By Rich the PJ from Panama City Beach, FL on 7/14/2007

Pros:

Accurate, Consistent, Good Tonal Range, Reproduces Well, Scans Well

Best Uses:

Action Shots, Artwork, Photojournalism, Sports Photography, Travel

Describe Yourself:

Professional

I started out 30-odd years ago with my first 35mm camera and fell in love with Tri-X. Today I am a fulltime photojournalist with a small newspaper shooting digital. BUT when I want to shoot for my own personal work, I pull out my dad's Yashica GS35 and rolls of Tri. It does more to improve my eye than anything else.
