That was Delta 100, at 100, processed in Ilfotec Hc. I've since changed to DDX 
which is supposed to be better. There are some good discussions on the net 
about film/developer combinations. The way I see it is that I'm a user and I 
don't see any advantage in experimenting because, in so doing, I could screw up 
something pretty volatile that i have, nevertheless, invested a lot of time 
into.
DDX is supposed to be awesome with Delta 3200 and I'm anxious to try it. 
Thanks,
Dave

David,

Very enjoyable and an example as to why I decided to pursue BW with film.  What 
film were you using and at what speed?  Thanks, Kevin
