KODAK PROFESSIONAL T-MAX 400 Film / 400TMY is a
continuous-tone panchromatic black-and-white negative film especially useful for
photographing dimly lighted subjects or fast action, for extending flash
distance range, and for photographing subjects that require good depth of field
and fast shutter speeds with maximum image quality for the film speed. It is
also useful for scientific and biomedical work, especially when fluorescence
photography is required. It has high speed (ISO 400/27° in most developers),
very high sharpness, extremely fine grain, and high resolving power; it allows a
high degree of enlargement.

Features:

• KODAK T-GRAIN Emulsion that reshapes pebble-like crystals into a tabular form with more surface to catch light
  
  • Allows films with extremely fine grain to be made faster; high-speed films have finer grain. T-MAX Films offer the best of both worlds: high speed and fine grain.
  
  
• Improved sharpness
  
  • Maintains subject detail in prints at higher degrees of magnification than conventional films.
  
  
• Expanded exposure latitude
  
  • Greater "forgiveness" with overexposure errors; quality prints from moderately under- or overexposed negatives.
    
  • Better highlight separation.
  
  
• Improved reciprocity at long and short exposure times
  
  • Less compensation required than with conventional films.
  
  
• 120-size film coated on a thicker (4.7-mil) base than other black-and-white roll films
  
  • Improved dimensional stability; easier darkroom handling
  
  
• Virtually no difference between the daylight and tungsten film speeds
  
  • No need to adjust exposure for different light sources.
  
  
• More responsive to zone-system development changes
  
  • Smaller time adjustments needed.
  
  
• No increase in processing time required for one-stop "push" with most developers
  
  • No need to segregate one-stop-pushed film from normally exposed film. You can
    mix normal exposures and one-stop-pushed exposures on the same roll. (You may
    want to use paper one-half grade higher in contrast to print one-stop-pushed exposures.)
  
  
• Less development-time increase required for film pushed by two or more stops
  
  • Saves processing time.
  
  
• Processed in standard developers, including KODAK PROFESSIONAL T-MAX
  Developer and KODAK KODAK PROFESSIONAL T-MAX RS Developer and Replenisher
  
  • No need for a special developer. You can process T-MAX Films with other black-and-white films.
  
  
• T-MAX 400 Film—a versatile film for all-around use
  
  • Excellent for use under lighting conditions from bright sunlight to dim existing light.
