I don't know if there is a big difference e between T Max 400 and Delta 400. I AM a little reluctant on T Max 100 having has SO MANY bad experiences with it and I'm doing so will with Delta 100. But then again I've never ran T Max 100 in Xtol 1:3 so that could be a different ball game for me with it's use. I never blink an eyelash when i hear of all the great work by great people being done with T Max 400. If someone asks me; I'll advise the Delta. But in Xtol 1:3 Agfapan 400 or HP5 or any odd film would probably be just ducky! Certainly Tri x. I plan soon to start massing around with the Pyro ABC formula. I hear its amazing with Neopan 1600!
