I haven't heard anyone comment on Kodak's Plus-X 125 asa, tho I have heard lots about Delta 100, and APX 25. Anyone care to comment? Sure, I use Plus-X more than all other black and white films. The only one better in this speed range was Verichrome Pan. I was also a big fan of Panatomic-X. What some do not either understand or realize is that if Plus-X is developed in Microdol-X, 1:3, it will yield negatives with exceedingly fine grain and sharpness. Kodak explained that it is the sharpest film and developer combination they offered. But now we have the T-Grain materials. I still use Plus-X and Microdol developer. RM
