Kodak Tri-x400 135-36 36mm Black and White Film - 10 Pack

Kodak Tri-X 400 is my go-to film for all-purpose photographic needs. I am a professional photographer with about 12 years of working experience, as a reference, and I personally shoot on a Nikon FG camera when I don't shoot digitally.This film is a professional-grade medium. It supports pushing and pulling when processing in the darkroom, allowing for more advanced control over highlights and shadows along with control over the zone system. This film is also relatively easy to manage after archiving, as its plastic surface behind the emulsion seems sturdier than other films I have used from Kodak.That being said, if you need less apparent grain on your images, try using any of Kodaks ASA 100 or 200 films. The grain size is somewhat larger than usual compared to other asa 400 films out there, but it's not a deal breaker for my personal use. I'm taking in microns, so it's not extremely obvious, but you'll know when looking after development.Buy one or two rolls and try it out, I highly recommend buying only a couple at first to make sure it's what you like before buying bulk orders. This way you don't spend 50 dollars at once.

This as close as one can get, I think, to the classic B&W high speed look (well 400 ISO, high speed in 1955). I don't know how close it is the the original Tri-X, and one would have to shoot with vintage lenses (in mint condition) to tell - and develop with vintage chemistry and wet print and so on, so one could never know for sure. But way more than close enough.It works especially well with the Zeiss ZM lenses.I bought the ten pack to get the really low price and because this is my choice for 400 ISO. Some of the big camera sites have individual rolls at the same unit price, which obviates the benefits even of Amazon prime shipping. Amazons provisioning of film is strangely spotty, with Ilford having the worst coverage.

It's nice to see that some things never change...like the good old camera film we used to use back in the day, when color anything was pricey. Since that long-ago decade, I had though that perhaps 35mm camera film, made (if not obsolete) less desirable with the advent of digital photography, would have dropped significantly in price. I see, however, that this is not the case...and that standard film is still costly. Perhaps the fact that there is a reduced demand works to cause higher manufacturing costs? Regardless, there is no doubting that Kodak makes a high quality product. This product was purchased for a photography course my college-aged child is taking, and I can't wait to see the black and white photos.

This film has spectacular grain and contrast, and is fast enough to be used with decent indoor lighting without a flash. The images simply have a timeless quality about them, I always look forward to seeing the results of shooting this film. It does a great job photographing people at formal affairs, such as graduation ceremonies, weddings, etc.. It is also great for street photography. It also has superb latitude and tolerates under-/over-exposure. I believe this is one of the best B&W films for pushing exposure, it is easy to shoot it like ISO800 and in certain situations up to ISO1600 can work.

Still my favorite B&W film. Processing time is different from older Tri-X so look on the Kodak site for details. The grain is tight and smooth in straight D-76 at 20C. I set my camera to ISO 320 and add 30-seconds to the processing including small tank draining time for perfect #2 density. This process white whites and dark blacks within a frame.

I received 400 Tmax instead of Tri-X film (as described and pictured). Had I noticed before my daughter took a few rolls to school, I would have returned it. Tri-X is tried and true and what I used 'back in the day'. I'll make sure that's what I receive next order.Be sure to take a better look than I did and assure you get what you ordered. (I haven't figured out yet if it's the Tmax film or the newer Ilford paper that doesn't have me thrilled with her developing results. Everything's changed in the past 20 years that I've been out of the darkroom!)

My go to for 35mm B & W. Sharp, nice contrast & tonal range. Consistent developing with a fair amount of latitude. Not as much latitude as a couple others but more consistent. I know exactly what to expect throughout the whole process. Others? not so much.

In the 20 years since I’ve used Tri X 400 the price has gone up a bit. It was nice to make images on the film that started it all with my career in photography. Film is the best teacher when learning photography. You learn to be more economic in your shooting and it forces you to slow down. There’s no instant gratification like there is with film. A good image is based on your skill set and how good you are at reading light.

I love this black and white film. Always produces reliable and beautiful results.

The best film ever made.

Fast delivery , good price & fresh film .

I hate Jeff Bezos, however I can't hate on this price for a pack of 10 of my FAVORITE film. This is the best price I can find in Canada. And it was shipped for free. Amazon will be my go-to for TRI-X if the price stays low.

Good quality at a good price...
