Professional Tri-X 400 Black and White Negative 35mm Film, 35mm Film - 36 Exposures

Kodak Tri-X 400 Black & White Film (36 exp) — the economical choice for a full client shoot

The gist: The 36-exposure roll of Kodak's legendary Tri-X 400 — the industry-standard B&W stock for photojournalism and editorial work — sized to cover a full session without a mid-shoot reload.

• Lower cost per frame: more exposures per roll than the 24-exposure version means a better cost basis for longer paid shoots or documentary-style assignments.
• Fewer reloads mid-shoot: 36 frames covers a full event or session, reducing interruptions during a client engagement.
• Forgiving exposure latitude: lowers the risk of a blown shot during a shoot where reshoots aren't an option.
• Pushable up to 3 stops: flexibility for low-light venues without switching stocks mid-assignment.

The Darkroom's film review describes Tri-X as "one of the most iconic film stocks ever made," noting "excellent exposure latitude" and strong push/pull results — qualities that reduce risk on a paid, one-take shoot.

Best for: photographers covering a full event or session who want more frames per roll at a lower cost-per-shot. Skip it if: you're doing a shorter, dedicated test shoot — the 24-exposure roll is the lighter-commitment option. Runs ~$6 — check the current price before buying.
