I got HP5 and Tri-X because I have only used Ilford FP4+
previously and someone in the group suggested trying Tri-X.
Apparently it is the equivalent of Ilford HP5 so I got both to
decide which I prefer.  I may also try some T400CN and
some Agfa Scala.  I don't want to use the FP4+ as it is a 125
film and perhaps too slow.

slide film and

Congratulations to you on your new toys, ohps, tools. Please tell
me why
you get Tri-X and HP5, how do you see the differences between
them. When do
you use the one and when the other? I see the need for different
films for
different situations but to me that is either high speed or low
speed.
