I have used the Kodak 3200 since I was in high school in the early 90s, and the Ilford for the last couple years. Both were incredible films that opened up a lot of possibilities for me. They were far better than any 400 speed film pushed to 1600 and 3200. I'm sad to see the Kodak one go. I just ordered another 10 rolls of the Ilford. It and Tri-X are the only two films I use in 35mm anymore. -- Chris Crawford Fine Art Photography Fort Wayne, Indiana 260-437-8990 http://www.chriscrawfordphoto.com My portfolio http://blog.chriscrawfordphoto.com My latest work! http://www.facebook.com/pages/Christopher-Crawford/48229272798 Become a fan on Facebook On 10/3/12 3:51 AM, "Jeffery Smith" <jsmith342 at gmail.com> wrote: >I was all thumbs in developing it.
