EI is the speed the film was rated at when shooting. Times marked “not yet verified” come from secondary sources and haven’t been checked against a manufacturer datasheet.

How they work together

XTOL: Fine grain, high acutance, full film speed, normal contrast. Excellent shadow detail with wide latitude.
Kodak T-Max 100: Professional tabular grain film with very fine grain and notable sharpness. Well-suited for detailed work and large enlargements.
Notes on this pairing: CORRECTED from 390s per F-4016 datasheet (7½ min).
Per Kodak J-109 datasheet.
