TRI-X 400 Svartvitt Negativfilm, 35mm

Shot a roll of this at a nighttime street fair and the contrast held up beautifully even in the shadowy corners. Panchromatic sensitivity means reds and blues render with real separation instead of mushing together. The sharpness for a 400-speed film genuinely surprised me.

The grain on this film is exactly what I wanted for street shots—visible but not muddy, even when I push it a stop in low light. Blacks stay rich and the highlights don't blow out, which is rare for a 400 speed.

Shot a roll of my kid's soccer game in bright sun and the shadows still held detail instead of going muddy. The grain is fine but has real texture to it, which is exactly what I wanted for street shots at dusk. Metering at 1600 pushed it beautifully too.
