Any idea what that might be? Has anyone used it?

Hmmmmm - Tri-x?

I have no idea - pushes to 1600 sounds like tri-x but I don't think that's absolutely indicative. But I have bought APX 100 and APX 400 (both agfa) bulk rolls from them and they are quick and efficient - excellent stuff - especially the APX 100 in Rodinal.

The T-grain films (Ilford Delta 400 and Kodak TMax 400) have a real advantage for grain size. TMax may have slightly smaller grain, but many prefer the look of Delta. Kodak 400TX has very fine grain, but much larger than TMax. The thing about 400TX is that the grain is soft looking and not obvious in viewing the whole picture. The old Agfa 400 speed product had very noticeable grain, but a nice look to the pictures. For most shots, grain doesn't count as much as people think. The great shots taken 50 years ago were all made on film with much coarser grain than any modern film has. With ordinary films, you can soften and mask the grain to some extent by using a fine grain developer like Microdol, D-76 (undiluted) or D-23 (undiluted).

I've shot a couple of rls (100') of the UF T-Grain and developed it with their developer and the grain is noticeable when enlarged 11X14 from 35mm film. Which is not that much of an issue. I've used Rodinol 1-50, DDX, D-76 1-1 and their developer stock and 1-1 (APX 400 time) with no real issues about the grain size. It will be used by me alot until they change.
