To be honest I wasn't sure what film to buy when I went to the store, and I bought the first one that was offered to me and it was Tmax400.
I now read that people prefer Tri-X because it's grainier and has been around longer. I might try it next then.
Self-developing might be interesting.
I have Tmax 400 in my camera now too, I wanna test different films, but Tri-x is like the rock star of 35mm films.
I'm going to test this roll out, and then maybe buy some of the other one to compare the results.
I'm a bit worried however about the light seals in the camera, I might have to clean off what's left of them and add some new ones. Also, the shutter doesn't seem to give me constant shutter speeds, especially when shooting with slow speeds below 8th of a second.
The camera store guy said it might have some gunk in the shutter mechanism, that I should clean it up by continuously clicking it a for a while.
I did that, but I'm not sure if it made any difference. And I was already anxious to put the film in, so I did.
