[Leica] Recommendations for film and developing

[Christopher Crawford]

Howard,

My favorite available light film/dev combo is Ilford Delta 3200 at either
1600 or 3200 developed in Kodak Tmax Developer.

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:
