Choosing the light and location right, indeed important aspects in photography! But seriously... it is such fine stuff. Tone and grain. To achieve medium format quality with a puny 35mm setup that weights a fraction of what the Hassy set does. I often carry a couple of rolls in the film bag just in case the gods from Venus would land and guide me to an opportunity to use it... The other thing is that you just cannot hang equal size prints of this and any fast film next to each other. The viewer invariably thinks that the Tri-X/HP5+ shot is defective. Kari
