I'm waiting for my order of the new TMAX 3200 to come in. I ordered a 10 pack to give it a shot and I wanted to do a side-by-side comparison to Delta 3200 since I have 5 or 6 rolls left of that too.
Prediction: you will be disappointed by the Delta 3200 in comparison....I already made it. Delta 3200 is a lot more grainy no matter what you do in development to reduce grain. I am otherwise a big fan of Ilford films, but Delta 3200 is not part of my list.
It's been awhile since I've poked my head in. Seems like film has had quite a resurgence here!
No film shots to share at the moment, but I have been enjoying time with a MM1. I absolutely love this camera and the tonality of the files. Here are just a few random assortments, taken with either the Voigtlander 50/1.5 or 40/1.2.

Yeah I gotta be honest I haven't really been enjoying Delta 3200. I've tried shooting it several different ways and it's just too grainy to be of use (to me, I know some people like that aesthetic.) I did however shoot delta 3200 in the past on 120 and thought it was excellent.
I'm primarily a Tri-X and HP5 shooter though I'm starting to really enjoy TMAX 400!
