The translation from the French to an awkward but appropriate progressive
tense in English ("need to knowing it") sums up Tri-X beautifully! I have
used Tri-X for over 30 years, with occasional attempts at other film. But I
know my Tri-X and continue to know it better - like an old friend with a
lot of depth. The combination of Tri-X and Leica glass was a match for the
ages.
