Which looks Tri-X'ish to me! Or Tri's to. Has that verisimilitude. I go from one of those 100 rolls to the next at 1600 hardly ever using the Neopan 400 which really is a heck of a lot sharper than the 1600 it's like your shooting plus X. in Xtol 1:3 metal tank of course. Although I've been shooting mainly Ilford xp2. Spy film. But its just as well on that across I've got little faith that what's left of Ilford can continue loosing money on Pan F. a thin but not tabgrain film but I've loved it for years almost as much as Panatomic X. way back then. Which I'd like to test in Beutlers. It might be noticeably higher rez than the ACROS in Xtol 1:3. I've been saying that here about three years now.
