If I want grain I shoot Tri-X.

Fine work, Rob. Good to see what can be done with B&W conversions and the
RAW format. Between you and Juan, I may be moving closer to a DSLR all the
faster. I do miss the grain though ...



The other day I started playing in Photoshop with some grain. I was thinking about shooting a frame of Tri-X of a flat grey card, scanning that and extracting the grain, to use on digital images. Then I realized that good results can be obtained with some noise and gaussian blur.

What do the purists in the list think about these idea of fake grain?
