Perennial favorite
This is my standard film. I was an early adopter when Royal Pan came out and since it morphed into Tri-x, I never have used anything else (except for Ilford 3200 when needed)....Read complete review
This is my standard film. I was an early adopter when Royal Pan came out and since it morphed into Tri-x, I never have used anything else (except for Ilford 3200 when needed). Tri-x produces sharp images, good tones, acceptable grain and is infinitely forgiving of my failures to expose it properly. When I travel, I tend to set my exposure and distance and shoot when images present themselves. That can produce a wild variation in light and shadow. Tri-x allows that. Cold and heat seem to have no effect on the film and it never has fogged when I've been unable to win a hand search at an airport. Another virtue: processing is simple. No special techniques or tricks. Even unibath in the Congo at some unknown temperature works.

A great low price for an excellent product. I used film to shoot some outdoor scenes on a trip to Maryland and I did not encounter any difficulty or malfunctioning. This item has more capacity than previous product I have purchased at other stores.

Comments about Kodak TX 135-36 Tri-X Pan Black & White Print Film (ISO-400):
I've used this film for my school's photography program for a few years now. It definitely allows a clear transition from the camera to a print with enough room for alterations to make a statement out of a photograph.

Wonderful film. I like punchy negs so tend to overexpose just a little, but this flexible film has plenty of latitude.

Comments about Kodak TX 135-36 Tri-X Pan Black & White Print Film (ISO-400):
I am a retired (most of the time)Photo-Journalist, Documentary/Street Photographer, with a background in the military and Commercial photography.
I am seventy-five years old and have used Tri-X for...let me see,how old is Tri-X? Yeah that long.
It's performance has been, as always, right on the money. I now send my film out to be processed and printed and find almost as good a photograph being made as I could do.
Thanks
