[pure-silver] Re: Increasing Grain

Grains of Delta 3200 is finer but less beautiful than the grains of
T-MAX 3200. (Shoot a roll of each and blow up to make an easy
comparison.) I use D3200 when I don't want to see grain, but use TMZ
for special effect in location portraits, wedding, etc...

If you use TMZ, developer may affect speed and highlight
characteristics but won't be much of an issue for the grain.

HC-110 is one of my LEAST favorite developers, but, based on my
experience years ago, it works reasonably well with TMZ if you can
take true speed of about 800 and pushability to 1600.

Otherwise I use DS-10 1+1 at 25C for both TMZ and Delta 3200.

I never used HC-110 with Delta 3200.
