Well, can't comment on the lens testing (always found the "debate" between
silver-nosed and other Zuikos kinda boring, really), but yeah, the Ilford Delta
series of films ROCK. I'm not a good processor of said films (too sloppy --
character flaw), but even I could tell the difference between it and other B&W
films I've processed in the past. Ilford's DDX chemistry for these films is a
must, too.
I've always loved you, Ilford. Please don't stop making film...
