Hmm. I get lots of contrast with Neopan. I think it's the only film I've
ever shot that had good contrast at the recommended developer time/temp.
The stuff I've shot has a nice snappy sharpness to it, but the grain is
a wee little rough.
Lately I've settled on TMZ at 1600 in 35mm, Delta 3200 at 1250 for 120.
Really fantastic results compared to the crap I used to put out. I can't
seem to really consistently get anything good at 3200.
I've been shooting the new Delta 400 lately, and it looks *very* nice.
It seems like it's actually more like a 500 speed film.
It sounds like you had fun today. I had dinner with Alex Grigolia, and
we decided Pentax needs to hurry up with that FA* 35/1.4.
