I use Ilford Ilfotec HC, which does a great job with Tri-x. This is both a test of film, film developer in combination, and the kodak Retina 1b, which I recently bought at a flea market in Germany, and am using for this series of tests. The colour film through this vintage camera came up trumps, now I need to have a look at the Tmax images shot with this folder.
By the way, it is the same model used by Edmund Hilary to record the conquest of Mt. Everest, together with a Rolle TLR, in 1955!

I have not used xtol, and my primary developer is rodinal.

I’d love to hear your thoughts once you try it.

I have been using ILFORD Delta400 for ages now @ gigs and this could be a good alternative if it is better.
I’ll give it a try

This film TMY-2 married to Xtol (straight) in my opinion is a near perfect match.

I understand that you used XTOL. Personally I have no experience with XTOL, but this fact will change also.
