For daylight, it depends. If you?re using a tripod, and don?t mind allow film, then I?d go for Ilford FP-4 or Kodak Tmax 100. Either of them if great developed in D-76 1+1. If you want a 400 speed film, which is what I use for handheld 35mm work, then my favorite is Ilford Delta 400 developed in Tmax Developer or Tri-X in D-76 1+1. I have my personally tested film developing times for a number of films in D-76, Rodinal, Tmax Developer, and PMK on my website: http://crawfordphotoschool.com/film/developing.php -- Chris Crawford Fine Art Photography Fort Wayne, Indiana 260-437-8990 http://www.chriscrawfordphoto.com My portfolio http://www.facebook.com/pages/Christopher-Crawford/48229272798 Like My Work on Facebook On 5/26/18, 11:09 PM, "LUG on behalf of Howard L Ritter Jr" <lug-bounces+chris=chriscrawfordphoto.com at leica-users.org on behalf of hlritter at twc.com> wrote: >After at least 15 years away from the darkroom, I?m going to shoot and >develop a few rolls of B&W with the M3 or the R9.
