Kodak Tri-X, wow, probably the most classic popular black and white film around. I’ve found this is really a love/hate film. Either people are passionate about, and love this film, or others just really can’t stand it and can’t bring themselves to shoot a roll. This week I took a break from my journy to find a fine grain replacement for my beloved ACROS to get into the grittier side of film photography and shot some Tri-X. In this episode I’ll share my feelings about my experience. I have to say I was a little surprised.
