Interesting. I often go back and forth between HP5 and Tri-X based on whichever is cheaper at the moment. I shoot more 400 ISO black and white than anything else. Sometimes I tell myself I like Tri-X better because of the higher contrast, but with HP5 I can always increase the final contrast anyway so it’s not even as good of a reason as it sounds!
Same here! Tri-X for me is the easiest to get a “ready” image from whereas HP5 has many possibilities for pushing, pulling, and unusual development methods 👍
