back in the late '60s/early '70s, I regularly used a Pentax S1a SLR camera (which I still have), and the black & white film of choice in those days - as used by David Bailey and others - was good old, grainy Kodak Tri-X Pan. Some years ago, I went back through my negs and scanned some of my work into the computer. They still looked OK, even when scanned. If you're interested, here are some examples: Cat In The Garden Beefeater - Tower Of London Tea Gardens Lake Coniston (UK, Lake District) Digital photography is very convenient, but I do miss the old film days.
