You may wish to trade off shallow DOF for increased diffusion. I have'nt taken much notice of that but think out of focus conditions will much more blur an image than the effects of diffusion. BTW, Tech Pan has a normal spectral sensitivity but much extended at the red end. You probably knew that. Dan |

MF & Technical Pan, looking for optimum sharpness
"Philippe Lauwers" wrote in message li.nl...
Hello, The last few weeks I've been shooting landscapes with a Hasselblad 503CW, using a CFE 2.8/80 mm- lens and TMX. Now that I've finally decided on how to build my compositions, I'm considering to start all over again using Technical Pan. For most pictures, the lens is stopped down to f11 or more. As you probably suspect from the combination medium-format / Technical Pan, I'll be trying to get the most out of my camera/film combination in terms of detail, sharpness, ... F/11 won't get it, and Tech Pan won't get it. Use a medium-speed film like FP4 or TMX. Tech Pan won't give you good tonality, and the smallest apertures suffer from diffraction. |

Oof the reasons I just friggin hate Kodak's T-Grain films is because it is the worst combination of 'kinda' fine grain without a chance of edge sharpness. Try TMX and Rodinal 1:100 for 19min at 70F Regards, John S. Douglas, Photographer - http://www.darkroompro.com Please remove the "_" when replying via email |

I will consider it when I finish off the Agfa APX. Acutol and FP4 will obliterate TMX and Rodinal. The subject was how to get apparent (perceived) sharpness via edge effects from TM films. Acutol vs. Rodinal is a religious argument that I won't even entertain. |

Acutol vs. Rodinal is a religious argument that I won't even entertain. He was actually contemplating Tech Pan, not TMX. TMX was someone else's suggestion. Actually, Pan-F in Acutol 1+24 for 9 minutes should please anyone. |
