Want to shoot in low light with no flash or tripod? Ilford Delta 3200 & Kodak TMAX p3200 are two great options!
They’re both high 3200 iso B&W stocks that perform well in low light but produce different looks.
TMAX p3200 has punchy tones, strong contrast, and surprisingly fine-grain while Delta 3200 has more subtle tones, mild contrast, and more noticeable but still good-looking grain. We’ll be shooting these once again to show a wider variety of side-by-side comparisons, like; night scenes, daylight portraits, how they perform with under and overexposure, and will show more info on how each shot was metered!

Photo Below: Delta 3200 Left | T-MAX P3200 RightContrast – The largest notable difference is the contrast with the TMAX p3200 (right) popping a bit more than the subtle contrast of Delta 3200.
Grain – TMAX’s grain appears to be much finer than Delta.
Exposure – While both films have great exposure latitude and do well with overexposure, the TMAX seems to be a little more versatile because Delta images get a little muddy in the underexposed parts of the photo.
