Zachar This is my first post withthis group. Tripod mated with Ilford Delta 100 processed in IlfotecHC 1+31 will deleiver great 36 inch by xx prints. In the old days Kodak PlusX or Agfa EI25 did great job. Kodak TMax 100 comes close but the Ilford seems less picky about temperatures and agitation. Happy snaps, Steven
