He also has the images processed to look like Tri-X. For prints, a lab converts the data into a 645 negative and prints using traditional darkroom process! Did he say how he has the digital files processed to look like Tri-X? Is is assistant using a certain software program? I know there are a number of programs out there for this; I'm wondering which one or what process replicates Tri-X accurately enough to his liking.
