Tri-X test roll

6 March 2010 One Comment

A few test shots from my first roll of tri-x 400… developed in DD-X for 8 mins with ilford fixer. 100% scans show very fine grain for a 400 film. Sharpness doesn’t compare to say Fuji Acros (100) but when I got it right, it looked v good. I read that the DDX development is a similar effect to xtol (fine grain effect). I printed the last shot at 19″x13″ tonight (via scanning) and was blown away. I’m constantly amazed at the resolving power of medium format. Makes going back to even 35mm difficult.

    i love developing with DDX too… have been getting great results (grains, sharpness, tonality) using it.

    only one thing i missed from concentrated HC-110. for the value of HC-110, can’t be beaten.

    speaking of which, i still have over a dozen of rolls waiting for me to get them developed.. my bad.
