ars-imago 3X 400 ISO?

[thmk]

Hi,

I just got a roll of this b/w film but do not know anything about it. Does someone have experience with it and can provide tips for development?

Cheers

Hi Thomas-Michael,

I believe it is repackaged Tri-X.

Cheers,

Hi Nick,

this sounds reasonable. The name of this film is "Three X" which could just mean "Tri-X". I think I'm gonna try to treat the film as Tri-X and see what happens developing it in HC-110 or R09 Special with the corresponding time. If I like the result I may order some more rolls, since it is 5 CHF per roll compared to 7 CHF for Tri-X.

Cheers
Thomas-Michael

I have bought repackaged Tri-x from them before, it was labeled as Profilm Tri-X 400. The same film was available from Foto Impex in Berlin.
