I’m intimately familiar with 100 and 400. My favorite black & white film, at present, is the incredible Polypan F 50. I’ve pushed Kentmere and HP5+ to 1600 and pulled some Digibase 2 stops to 50. But ISO 6? Insanity…
FP4Party!
I’m not much one for social media, but I recently made a concerted effort to take part in Twitter, and, to be honest, it’s quite fun.
