Kodak Tri-X 35mm is a truly legendary film. Kodak Tri-X emulsion was first introduced in 1940 in sheet film, making it over 80 years old 🤩
Now at a low everyday price!
Key to its longevity has been its flexibility - photographers can take TriX 35mm into a variety of lighting situations and recover highlights and shadows or generate different grain feel through processing choices.
It has been the first choice for many top photographers over its lifespan - in fact when Kodak went through bankruptcy and restructuring in 2012 Don McCullin panic-bought 150 rolls of Kodak Tri-X in case it didn't survive the turmoil! Fortunately for Mr McCullin and every other photographer, Tri-X did survive and is still available fresh in both 35mm and 120 formats.

Kodak - properly known as Kodak Eastman - was founded in America in 1888 and dominated the "Western" world of photography for the next 100 years, constantly in fierce rivalry with the Japanese Fuji. Similarly to Fuji the advent of digital photography at the turn of the century caused significant financial problems. A late attempt to win in the compact market was hit by the rise of mobile photography and bankruptcy followed in 2012. Fortunately the photography business has survived under the Kodak Alaris name - based in Hertfordshire, England - and they have delighted the analogue industry by pledging continued support for film production and the promise of bringing back old favourite emulsions.

I bought a roll of Kodak Tri-X 400 to allow me to compare it to Ilford HP5; my go-to black and white film. I was very impressed with how the pictures came out, especially given the range of lighting conditions and exposures I took the photos with. I like the contrast of the film a lot and what can be achieved with it. I have gone and bought another roll of it, and intend to buy many more in the future.

I can't stop looking at these pics
Stunning film - the grain on it, for me, is just right; adds such wonderful character to the images.
Pleasantly surprised at how much detail was captured in the shadows, and would definitely use this film again.

Brilliant, versatile fine film, perfect for a bit of everything.
Having used a couple of rolls of TMax 400 to shoot a cyclocross event, and loving its look and versatility, I was interested to see how Tri-X compared.
Maybe it was the subject matter being different, but my results we distractingly grainy. I didn't like that structure at all, and felt it had less contrast as well.
If I'm going 'fancy', in lower light conditions, I think I'll stick to TMax....
Shot with a Nikon FE and developed in ID-11 1+1.

Nice contrasty black and white film stick.
I have been running quite a few different films through my pentax 17 and minolta x700, and tri.x is fast becoming my favorite. Even developing in monobath ive been getting good results, well for me any way.
