Now, no one has tested the new Tri_X in larger sizes as far as I know to see if the curves are the same. And I don't think the Tri-X 320 is even out there in sheet sizes yet, so we don't know if it has been "improved" in the same way as the Tri-X 400 has. Of course, in roll and sheet sizes grain isn't so much of an issue - the curves are more important. But I think most users would be happy with Tri-X 320 with a bit less grain if that happened to be the case. tim - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
