TriX was a
freakin' nightmare unless you had extremely fast lenses and shot wide
open all the time.




What??? Nightmare how?




I didn't know what he meant by that, either. If you were making huge
blowups, there was a grain problem, but if you didn't want the grain,
there were other great kodak films to use. Hell, I used to buy it in
100' rolls. It was fabulous film for dim light or for sports. That, a
Nikon F and an f 2.5 180mm lens and you were all set for basketball.
