Well yeah. Tri-x is faster, more grain, somewhat like HP5 and FP4 is slower, finer grain, more like Plus-X.

Like comparing apples and oranges.

Can't comment on the scanner.

Pateeid,
We have a sister site http://hybridphoto.com that has as its focus the blending of digital and traditional photography. This subject is out of scope for APUG.
