Neopan 400 / Tri-X 400

By Guido | Published 2009/05/20


After a short time of using Neopan 400 i switched back to Tri-X. There’s no doubt that Neopan provides far better details but in the end i simply prefer the Tri-X look for the kind of pictures i do.
The picture above was done with a Leica M2 i acquired last year. I don’t use it very often which is a shame as this camera handles so much better than the M6. The only downside is that it does not have a builtin lightmeter which is something i shouldn’t worry about too much. I did the last the 3 rolls by guessing the settings and each single frame was exposed perfectly.

    Guido,

    Love your pictures man. I’ve been going back and forth too with films but keep coming back to tri-x. Perhaps if it isn’t broken, don’t fix it!

    Thanks for sharing your shots. Maybe I’ll see you on the street of NY. Hit me up via email if you want to walk about.

    Rufus
