See any differences from the old formulation?

Grain's somewhat smoother, more consistent throughout, especially in shadow areas. In a way that's not bad, but I wouldn't want to see it any closer to T-Max, that's for sure.

It still has the "look" of Tri-X in important respects. I don't know. If you want I'll forward a larger TIFF for you to inspect more closely. Decide for yourself.

On balance I'd say at this juncture I prefer the old (second) rendition of Tri-X. Doesn't matter much, though, as I've just one roll of that emulsion left.
