Oh, I forgot, I never could get Tmax 3200 to give me decent negatives. They were always too thin.

ALso, with high-speed films, it's important to not let it sit too long before developing. The latent image seems to deteriorate otherwise.

The bottom line is that in 100 and 400, there are superb choices from
Kodak, Ilford, Fuji, and Agfa.  Choose a couple in each speed and
shoot/develop them and take what you like.  I chose the Delta films (100,
400, 3200) because they developed well in my setup, they scan well,
they're fine-grained, and they offer good latitude and tonality.

Skip, what do you rate your Delta 3200 at in the field? What sort of
results do you obtain as you rate it higher than 800-1000? How do you
compare this emulsion to the TMax 3200?
