Care to share what those problems are?

I mainly use HP5 now, and am thinking of moving to delta 400. I just want to know if your problems are a result of t-grain formulation

I had paper problems. Use Delta 400 with no fear.

I will retire to consider an appropriate penance that will expiate.
Or I can grant you an indulgence for only a few dollars?

Hey, I shot Kodak TMAX 400 exclusively (for my ISO 400 needs) for MANY years until being burned hard five or six times.

Only the most rabid fan boy would keep shooting Kodak TMAX 400 if they went through what I did. That's a fact.

Just a bit of fun on my part directed in the main towards the survey but by way of dry British humour I mentioned you in the context of "fans of Kodak" as you seem to have amongst the strongest and possibly most unshakeable views on Kodak. I am not saying that your experience doesn't justify your views.

I am not a fan of Kodak's bulk roll prices in the U.K. Fortunately, I am forewarned, having seen those prices and can avoid being burnt by not buying any in the future which was a course not open to you.

OK, understood. I'm sure most here enjoy laughing at me, at my expense, for suffering through so much misery with TMAX 400.

I'm in a long term relationship with Fuji Acros 100 and this devious conniving creature tried to lure me into an affair with a Kodak product.

I'll shoot Acros until it is unavailable. It is an amazing film. Actually, I'll probably shoo Acros until I'm done with photography. Were it announced today, I could buy enough to take me to the end or close to it.

I really miss Agfa APX100, but once I discovered Acros it didn't matter so much. I agree, it is an amazing film.

what happened to you, was not funny at all.
BTW: there are people in the crowd who have been treated poorly by kody, going back to the 1990s so its SSDD

...and for B/W, Ilford 3200, which I have used in the past and have a small stash of that I should get out and use.

Well, I thought I would have a second go at the b/w as that's what I shoot 99% of the time, just to see if a different day etc makes any difference and I am sure I picked a few different pictures to the first time I did it BUT I still ended up with Ilford 3200.

So it seems, with no argument from me, that my next film loaded will be a roll of Ilford 3200. :smile:

They didn't mention slide films ... anyway. Just got my Agfa Precisa CT 100
It's such a great feeling to catch my M4 and the R7, to take some rolls of Tri-X, TMax and those Agfa CT and to start this night to Greece for 2 sunny weeks
Love it :heart::D

They matched me with HP5+ and Delta 400 in B&W. I shoot mostly HP5+ and just picked up a bulk roll of it :smile: For color it gave me Portra 400 and Superia 400. Seems to be pretty accurate for me.

Kodak Ultramax 400??

Ok so that test was done with my display dimmed way down so as not to wake my wife. Second test at normal brightness reveals Portra 160 and Fujicolor C200. I use Fujicolor C200 very, very often but like Portra 160 as well.

For B&W it said to try Lomography Lady Grey (I usually shoot Ilford Delta 100 or Kentmere 100).

Very interesting little app. Choose Fomapan 400 in B/W and Lomocolor 400. I like the fomapan and use quite a bit of it, was always a Superia / Reala fan until Fuji stopped producing Reala. Might give the Lomocolor a shot on my next order, wth?
