On my light table right now are several rolls of Tri x which I ran yesterday in Xtol 1:3 for 13 minutes 70 degrees and the ones with the upside down numbers where shot with the Rollei which holds it's one in all respects to my Leica optics and I 've got some pretty good loupe. Looking at them last night made me pretty impressed with those 1970's Rollei compact optics. (Carl Zeiss Tessar 1:3,5 F=40mm) Mark Rabiner I would expect to see some difference in 11 by 14's or even better loupes.
