Kodak T-Max 400 Professional film is a continuous-tone panchromatic black-and-white negative film. It is also useful for scientific and biomedical work, especially when fluorescence photography is required. It has high speed (ISO 400/27 in most developers), very high sharpness, extremely fine grain, and high resolving power; it allows a high degree of enlargement.

Kodak T-Grain Emulsion
Allows films with extremely fine grain to be made faster; high-speed films have finer grain; T-MAX Professional Films offer the best of both worlds: high speed and fine grain
Improved sharpness
Maintains subject detail in prints at higher degrees of magnification than conventional films
Expanded exposure latitude
Greater "forgiveness" with overexposure errors; quality prints from moderately under- or overexposed negatives; Better highlight separation
Improved reciprocity at long and short exposure times
Less compensation required than with conventional films
More responsive to zone-system development changes
Smaller time adjustments needed
Shorter push-processing development time -- no increase for 1-stop push, shorter 2-stop push-times than other films require
Type 120mm black and white negative film
Speed ISO 400
Applications For dimly lighted subjects or fast action; for extending flash distance range; and for photographing subjects that require good depth of field and fast shutter speeds with maximum image quality for the film speed
Process T-Max, T-Max RS, X-Tol, D-76, HC-110, Duraflo RT
Color Saturation Not applicable
Grain Fine
Sharpness High
Exposure Latitude Wide
Push/Pull Can be pushed 2-stops

      Comments about Kodak TMY 120 T-Max 400 Professional Black & White Print Film (ISO-400):

      This is my all around film that never leaves my camera. It's got great contrast and tones and can easily be pushed one or two stops if you choose to...Very sharp. prints well in the darkroom.

        Comments about Kodak TMY 120 T-Max 400 Professional Black & White Print Film (ISO-400):

        Highest dynamic range I've seen thus far. Excellent for pushing as long as you use Tmax Dev or Tmax-RS Developers. I pushed it to 1600 and still get that fine grain TMax is known for even at 11x14 pictures. (I'm sure it will go even larger, I just have not tried it.)

            Fantastic film for handheld use. Grain is small, on par with a traditional film of 125 ISO. Works well in a variety of developers. Pretty good sharpness with normal development in XTOL. Can be incredibly sharp if developed using a semi stand technique.

              I picked up a roll initially to test a new TLR I had purchased at a yard sale and was very impressed with it's range and low grain. Since then, I have fed it through every 120 camera I have or borrow. Weather it is being fed through a $50 Lomo or a $5,000 Hasselbad, they quality and consistency is always spot on. I highly recommend this film to anyone wanting a "shoot all over" b&w 120 film.

                  I've been using it in a Kodak Duaflex II and Brownie Hawkeye Flash I bought them at the antique store for $5 each. I'm getting great pictures with very basic cameras. Love the film. I also use the 100 speed T-max.

                                  I like TMY 400 better in 120 than 35mm as it has less curl - so I can get it into the scanner more quickly. The grain and sharpness is excellent and the price is right. Tmax film I find benefits from a slightly longer fixer time. My only wish is that Kodak start making this in 620 as well, so we could use all the old Kodak cameras,,,

                                    I've been getting great results using this film and d-76 developer. Great contrast, low grain.

                                      Works very well in your 120mm cameras such as the Holga and Diana, and shows very fine detail.

                                        I needed to use the T-Max 400 film for my photography class while experimenting with the Holga cameras. The film worked great, and worth the price.

                                            I use this film in various medium format cameras, sometimes to test them out, and it performs reliably every single time. This film is consistent, quality, and the output is wonderful. I will continue to use it and recommend it to everyone I know.

                                              The TMY 120 T-Max film that I purchase from B and H [...] is a clear and helpfull web site making purchasess easy and it is also the only place I know of that still sells it at such a good price.

                                                  I shoot this in either my Hasselblad or my Yashica TLR and I use T-max developer. Very easy to roll onto stainless steel reels and the tape adhesive has just the right stickiness. Super sharp, almost no grain to speak of. A consistent product that'll never let you down. Great exposure latitude, too.

                                                    I love this film for its sharpness! Less reciprocity failure than TRI-X 320, which is a huge plus.

                                                      Tmax 400 120mm film is my all around choice for outdoor portraiture. The grain is very fine now and when the clouds roll over I don't have to worry. Just use a reflective disc and it's better than any studio. Beautiful prints with this film.
