Not to start a flame war, but it seems to be this is letting the cart
decide where the horse should pull it. If one prefers Tri-X to Delta
400, figure out how best to scan it, don't just switch films because the
other "scans better." I have to say, and I think have before, that I
don't get the complaints about scanning tri-x.....

Practical Photography touts the following three films as being good for 
scanning:

Ilford Delta 400

Agfa 100 APX

Fuji Acros 100

If you use and scan any of these three films successfully (i.e., find
that 
they scan WELL), please email me offlist with which developer you use.

Thanks!

Jeffery
