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.

Like shaking hands with an old friend
I first came across Tri-X 400 in the 1960s working closely with photographers as a graphic designer. What always strikes me about this film is its consistency. It always makes the most most of any light conditions with its dramatic contrast and the distinction and clarity of its mid-tones. It's great that it's still available (thanks AW).

First time trying black & white
First go at shooting with black & white film. Really pleased with the initial results and the contrast in the scenes. It captures detail in a variety of lighting.
When it comes to B&W I usually go for Ilford but I really liked shooting this film. It looks lovely and I was able to get a few different types of shots with it. A nice surprise and one I'll return too.
