Last call for Kodak TriX.

Ruby just received their latest stock of TriX at the old price. The rumor about the new prices are not fiction.

I just checked the new price of TriX at Cathay and it's officially a heart wrenching $9 per roll :bigeyes::bigeyes::bigeyes:.

So for those who have not stocked up on their favorite B&W, better do it quickly.

Good luck.

Just in case some of you want to go Fotohub at Commonwealth, I just called to see if got stocks there as there is still 10% member discount.

No stocks, maybe next week, and price will increase came the reply :(
 

Aiya Jon, not the end of B&W film yet.;)

If you guys are looking for alternatives to Tri-X 400, can try Ilford HP5+

I finish an entire 100feet of Ilford HP5+, my newbie eyes really cant tell the difference. In fact, I prefer HP5+ these days. 5mins developing time, pushing to 800 or 1600 also much faster than Tri-X in terms of developing time.

I heard that is an increase in Ilford as well but erm it is 50cents :angel:only compared to $4from Kodak:o?

Can try Delta 400 as well.

The folks there trying to recover their claimed loses of 125%? Bad move I would say......
 

What are the chances of them dropping the prices if sales drops?

I have taken a liking for Ilford Delta as well. Nice sharp film, with nice smooth blacks but not so black as to not retain any detail.

HP5+ is cool as well. It looks comparable to Tri X.

Yea.

imho, HP5+ & Tri-X 400, I cant tell the diff.

Ilford Delta 400, nice & sharp, the Delta 100, lagi fine grain.

AGFA APX not my kinda film really but for those of you who like really high details, APX is your best bet.

T-max I've never tried, so cant comment.
 

So the price increase of tri-x to $9 is true? Guess will hv to order Arista premium 400 in the future.
 

Lunchtime 12 noon ruby still got stock. I saw at least 1000 roll in top cupboard. Maybe they got more
 

Ya i agree hp5+ is same as tri x. I cannot see diff oso

I have tried TMax, but sometimes, it's a bit too light. It's great to capture shadow details, but the shadows look... rather light.

I would suppose it is a better film when it comes to architecture and so forth.
 

oohh, noo...
maybe it's time to venture into other film for me..
HP5+ and Arista look promising..

i really would like to start buying bulk rolls..
anyone know where to get reloadable canister for it? (cheap2 one.. haha!)

I apologise for this statement. I meant that I saw approx 100 rolls in the top cupboard. Its at old price of $5.

Ruby ppl said "price increase is next week".

btw. they told me that last month also. But last month Cathay was not selling at $9
