[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]Thanks again for your kind words, with a Noctilux and a Tri X you can do everything!, if you prefer a less grany film T-Max is a very good film too, it works well scanned, but I find it more "cold", I like the texture and dynamic range of Tri X, my mostly frequent films are Tri X and Plus X, I loved the Agfa APX 100, as well the Fuji Across 100 and Ilford FP4, these are my actual experiences with film, never tried Delta and others with process C-41. If you and you wife decide visit Barcelona you will be welcome and we can have a great time together cheers Lluis El 02/04/2012, a las 6:31, Leon Pomeroy escribi?: > > > Luis Ripoll: > > How nice to receive your gift of praise for my favorite M5, 50 mm f1.2 > combination.one that has given me much pleasure over the > years.mostly in > bygone Kodachrome 64 days!
