[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I have used a fair bit of TX400CN whilst travelling in the US (I am in the UK) in order to prevent the film going through two or more sets of x-ray equipment. I know that I can shoot and then get the film processed in C41 with no problem. I never have the film printed onto C41 paper as this gives sepia prints and I have no use for them in any case. These days I always scan my negs and store them digitally for 'contact' purposes. I have exhibited prints from the resultant negatives at a number of venues including the Royal photographic Society, and I have always found them easy to print on conventional b&w paper. They yield a very fine grained image with a good tonal range, and are easy to print. There has been some doubt expressed on this board as to the longevity of the negatives but I have noticed no problems (although I appreciate it is early yet!) In general I would recommend this film, although for general shooting I stick to conventional b&w emulsions.
