Delta 3200 $16/roll @ 1000, versus Kentmere 400 $6/roll @ 1600. As you can see the Kentmere at almost 1/3rd of the cost has less grain @ 1600 than Delta has @ 1000:
If all shot at 3200 and devved in Xtol:
Delta 3200 needs 7.5 minutes
Kodak P3200 needs 13.5 minutes
HP5 at 3200 needs 17.5 minutes
Scanning itself acts as a compensation, which is pretty cool actually. To make all things equal you would have to know the density of the neg right? I mean, all of this stuff was intended for print, the original exposure compensation. PErhaps this is where the science departs from the art. I would take that Kentmere image any day.
