Response to Grain and tonality in 400 ASA tradional emulsions

from Matthew Hunt (mph@astro.caltech.edu)
Since you mentioned the red sensitivity of Tri-X, I'll just point out that HP5+ has slightly more red sensitivity. Amateur astronomers know this because there is an important hydrogen emission line at 656 nm, and HP5+ captures this light while Tri-X does not. I'd guess that differences in skin rendering between HP5+ and Tri-X must arise from some other factor.
