Re-educate an Ilford child of the 1960's

[lxmike]

Born in the mid 1960's, first camera mid 1970's, shooting b&W mainly Ilford HP5 ever since, I now have a hanker for high speed film, greater than 400 asa, l want to play and experiment😀 What would you recommend for a bit of indoor fun with lots of grain🙂

Easy. Delta 3200, developed for one stop faster vthan the chosen EI, i.e. expose at 1600 (the minimum I'd recommend), follow the development recommendations for 3200; for 3200, develop as for 6400, etc.

Come to think of it, is there any other choice today?

Cheers,

R.

HP5+ pushed at @1200-1600 gives grain.
