Jim,

Kodak Plus X was one of my favorite films, four years ago I’ve purchased expired but still working, I have tested a lot of films: Eastmann Double X 5222, ORWO 74 and 72, Bergger, Adox Silvermax, Tri-X, Foma, and finally I’ve been back to the classical FP4 and HP5, with classical developers too D-76/ID-11, FP4 and HP5 are great films but they don’t deliver the Plus-X look….., it is a shame. Someone said me to test Kenmere but I have not yet tried. We have to say R.I.P. to the Plus X, enjoy your three last gems!

Cheers
Lluis
