Testing out my new 75mm lens on the 645. Acros 100 with Rodinal 1+50. James was mid-peekaboo bout at the time!

Damn fine baby shot. Makes me want to break out the 645.

Here's a kitten - I posted this in the film development section, as the first go-round I didn't manage to fix the film properly. I posted a sample of the exhausted fixer result, and then this re-fixed one. Educational.

Tri-X, HC-110, OM2n, Zuiko 85/2, T-32 bounced

That's two cute pics in a row - definitely time for something more abstract

Great location, great shot.

What are people's thought on Ilford FP4+ vs Delta 125?

From what I've seen, FP4+ has no lesser grain than HP5, despite being much slower. Delta 125 seems to be much finer. Pan F seems to have none that's visible in most photos, I don't like it.

eddie1960 · 06-21-2012, 06:36 AM

the FP and Hp are old school formulations (like Kodak's Plusx and TRix for instance) Personally I like the grain on the older film formulations, these films are maybe more flexible for push and pull as well. Delta series are much finer grain , Tabular type (So like Tmax and Neopan) . This is the same type of grain and film making process as almost all colour negative films as well (though in this case done with b/w tech)
I like both but it depends on use. If I want a grittier old school look I will shoot Tri X or HP4, If I want Finer grain and more detail I will shoot with Neopan or Delta. If I want finest grain for largest enlargements I will shoot Panf or If I'm really chasing detail the Maco Ortho film
