Tri-X @ 1600 has been the only thing I've shot with in the past 5 months other than the Fomapan 100 I got from the Freestyle sale. I don't see that changing anytime soon.
 
I'm just back into the realm of film after a sizeable hiatus.

I am currently using FP4 and HP5, more out of habit than any technical reasons.

5 films in and it's just great to be back.
 
Ilford HP5plus. And now that I bulkload, I am even enjoying my contact prints more, without the annoying zebrastripelike-DX-barcodes between frame numbers ;-)

I mainly use TMY. TMX when I want that silky smooth look. On occasion I'll shoot HP5, but through all the years ( 32 ) of making images, TMX, Tri-x and TMY have been my go-to films.

I use T-max 400 and Tri-X 400 most of the time. This month I bought HP5 in Bulk so I'll start using it too ... 🙂

Ahh, and some Neopan 1600 I found. 🙂
 
I've been using HP5 for one year, very nice film.

Since last year I use Tri-X and have just ordered the bulk film of TMAX 400. They are not only awesome, but also very interesting that can be pushed one stop with the same dev time.
 
I've recently decided to restrict myself to:

- Fuji Neopan 400CN Pro (or Kodak Tri-X 400) for 35mm
- Ilford XP2 Super (or Kodak Tri-X 400) for 120

There is no logic aside from the fact that I like what I get from these films and I shoot mono almost exclusively these days.
 
I looked to vote but there was nothing there that I use regularly. Tri-X? (which is almost all I shoot in these days when C-41 has suddenly become difficult for me) Reala? Gold 100 or 200? Portra (of whatever speed)? Pro 400H? Ektar?

Sure I shoot XP2 and BW400CN from time to time, but now that's mostly in my past. I do like Delta 400, but haven't shot it in a while. So I pretty much have nothing to vote for in this poll.

2TMY and ACROS are all I use anymore. I'll continue to use these until my stocks are gone and I can't get more.
 
Acros 100, Neopan 400, and Neopan SS when I can find it. Xtol when available locally, D-76 if not.

Color print films: NPS 160 (happened on a great deal, snagged 8 press packs' worth), Portra 400, Ektar.

Slide films: Not since my first roll of Ektar (see above, lol).
