Amateur here - which lens do you think preferable? I understand that a

I don't use B&W film, but FWIW there is an article by Kai Yamada in the
August/September issue of Camera Arts where he reports he uses "Tri-X Pro"
and learned of the change in emulsion. He reports that "whatever tweaking
they have done to the film, it hasn't affected the look of the prints . . ."

I downloaded the image - it is still in RGB. Either convert to LAB and
adjust the curve in the L (luminosity) channel only, then re-convert to RGB,

Go here:
