After almost 30 years of souping Tri-X and Ilford HP5 I'm burned out. I'm almost completely convinced color negs and Photoshop can master the monochrome issue. After looking at some of the responses I got the idea some thought I meant going to digital.....Not in this lifetime for sure, although negatives in a Coolscan do become digital. Something else, if I could follow you around Barcelona I'd load Tri-X for sure.
