It's name Is Tmax P3200 the P does not stand for pool but push! So 3200 is it's Push speed. Delta should have used a similar trick. Delta I3200. I stands for "in your imagination" I got better luck with D76 with tmax, the developer they used when tweaking the film. But now it's Xtol all over the place and Delta. The Delta 3200 gets rated at 1600 or 1200 I can't decide. It IS the only opinion in 120. But the Fuji Neopan 1600 IS a true 1600 at least and Xtol produces a clean, nice looking in your face negative. For 35mm Mark Rabiner
