Hello, Barry and All,
I always shot Tri-X at 200 (years ago). Now I'm dependant on a
commercial processor, for awhile, anyway. He does do B&W by hand, which
is unusual for an outfit that caters to the mass market. Question. If
I shoot Tri-X (or Agfapan 400 or Delta 400) at 200 to open up some
shadow detail, do I tell him to "pull" process it or ask him to process
it normally? I think this is going to be a trial-and-error experience,
but I'd like to hear from some of you with more recent B&W experience
than mine.
Regards,
John P
