Thanks! Yes, it's a fantastic camera, no doubt! But the rangefinder base is somewhat short and I think it's best for handheld, stopped down shooting with fast film.

In 35mm and 120, I regularly shoot TriX@1250 in Diafine. How much does Tmax developer gives you?
I don't know about Tri-X actually. I use to shoot Tmax 400 @ 640-720, but if you don't mind deep blacks it's probably OK up to 1600.
Originally posted by tuco The metallic feel on #2 jumps off the screen, nice. Did you ever have a chance to experience the TXP version of Tri-X?
Nope, I've only tried the 400TX version. The main problems have been that the developer isn't suitable (D-76 and R09) for the results I want, and that it curls a lot more than Tmax 400 after drying. Sharpness is also way less good, but it doesn't matter in this small format.
