Subject: RE: B&W developers and Tri-x ??
Apparantly KODAK claims the Tmax 400 can very closly emulate the old
Plus-X
if developed a certain way. They don't make that claim for tri-x
and still offer it even though tri-x has lower resolution and
and larger grain than tmax400.
I think it depends on how important the look of the grain structure is.
If you don't care what the grain looks like, the RMS values are quite similar.
The characteristic curves of Plus-X and T-Max are also very different, and will give very different results to the discerning photographer.
