I find ICE very useful also, and so I have started using more of the chromogenic films like Porta BW 400. I seem to get really good results and I don't have to develop it at home which I find to be a real pleasure. -----Original Message----- From: André Vallejo [mailto:avs@...] Sent: Wednesday, September 04, 2002 5:12 PM To: DigitalBlackandWhiteThePrint@yahoogroups.com Subject: [Digital BW] your favorite film Well,I've been making a lot of tests on this recently,concerning BW film X Color film for BW printing. What I have to say after extensive comparison using TMax,Delta,Provia and EVS,is that if you shoot in ideal light conditions,you'll find not relevant differences,and the use of color film gives you the advantage of ICE,which can be extremely time saving. I use a Nikon 4000ED. The only thing this scanner doesn´t like very much is grainy film. So,I now tend to use color slide,fine grained and use BW less and less. When shooting on harsh light or with too much light difference ,then I still may use Delta...
