RE: [Digital BW] Film for scanning was Re: The State of PersonalScanner Technology

2002-10-10 by Ton Guiking

You know what? I've been using Kodak Plus X, Tri X, T-max 100 and 400,
with Rodinal, T-max and D 76. I ended up with the age old combination of
Tri X and D 76 1 + 1. Couldn't work with T-max developer, Rodinal (maybe
I didn't use it properly) worked to contrasty and strong, and D 76 1 + 1
never lets me down. 
FWIW,
Ton Guiking
