ILFORD HP5 PLUS ISO 400/27° Grain: Not stated RP: Not stated ID: HP5 Plus HP5 Plus is a refined version of Ilford's highly popular and versatile conventional-technology high-speed film, with improvements in sharpness, grain structure and push/pull characteristics, all of which were quite good in the original HP5. Using Ilford Microphen developer, HP5 Plus can be pushed to EI 3200. HP5 Plus responds well to changes in development for contrast control. ILFORD DELTA 400 PROF. ISO 400/27° Grain: Not stated RP: Not stated ID: Delta 400 The newest generation of Ilford's new-technology 400 Delta film, Delta 400 Professional produces ISO 400 speed with ISO 100 image quality. It can be rated from EI 200-3200 by simply altering development, and can be processed is a wide range of popular developers. Shadow detail and exposure latitude have been improved, and the film scans well for a silver-based emulsion. ILFORD XP2 SUPER 400 ISO 400/27° Grain: Varies with EI RP: Varies with EI ID: XP2 Utilizing standard C-41 color-negative processing, XP2 Super yields black-and-white negatives, yet can be processed and proofed by any convenient one-hour lab (or you can develop it yourself with Ilford's XP kit). Image quality is superb when the negatives are printed on conventional B&W paper. The film has amazing exposure latitude. XP2 Super has improved contrast and a more neutral base color than XP2. KODAK BLACK & WHITE + 400 EI 400/27° Grain: Not stated RP: Not stated ID: B&W + 400 The consumer version of T-Max T400 CN, Black & White + 400 is processed in standard C-41 color-print film chemistry, yielding negatives with images composed of dye rather than silver. Exposed at EI 400, its image quality matches that of T-Max 100. This film produces beautiful prints at EI 50-800 with standard processing, and can be pushed to EI 1600 and 3200 for increased speed and contrast. KODAK PROF. PORTRA 400BW ISO 400/27° Grain: RMS 9 RP: Not stated ID: 400BW Like Kodak's other two chromogenic black-and-white films, new Professional Portra 400BW produces excellent dye-based negative images when processed in standard C-41 color-negative-film chemicals. The main difference is that Portra 400BW is designed to be printed on color papers, while Black & White 400 and Professional T-Max T400 CN are designed to be printed on conventional black-and-white papers. KODAK TRI-X ISO 400/27° Grain: Not stated RP: 100/50 lpm ID: TX, 5063 Tri-X has long been a favorite of pictorial, sports and news photographers for its beautiful tonal range and high speed. Many users rate it at EI 250-320 for pictorial use and reduce development to gain extended tonal range. Tri-X is easily pushed in several popular "speed-increasing" developers. This is a fine all-purpose film when giant blow-ups are not required. KODAK T-MAX 400 ISO 400/27° Grain: RMS 10 RP: 125/50 lpm ID: TMY, 5053 T-Max 400 is sharper and finer-grained than Plus-X, with three times the speed. One of the faster ISO 400 films (strange but true), T-Max 400 can be rated up to EI 800 with no change in development; effective speeds of EI 1600 and 3200 are possible with increased development. A great general-purpose film with excellent exposure latitude, but it needs more precise processing than Tri-X. KODAK PROF. T-MAX T400 CN EI 400/27° Grain: Not stated RP: Not stated ID: T400 CN This versatile black-and-white negative film is processed in standard C-41 color-print film chemistry, yielding negatives with images composed of dye rather than silver. Exposed at EI 400, its image quality matches that of T-Max 100. T400 CN produces great results at EI 50-800 with standard processing, and can be pushed to EI 1600 and 3200 for increased speed and contrast. KONICA MONOCHROME VX400 ISO 400/27° Grain: Not stated RP: Not stated ID: Not stated Konica joins Ilford and Kodak in offering a chromogenic black-and-white film that is processed in standard C-41 color-print film chemicals to yield super-quality black-and-white negatives with images consisting of dye rather than silver. Any C-41 one-hour lab can process the film and print it on standard color paper, so you can get high-quality black-and-white images even if you don't have a darkroom. FUJI NEOPAN 1600 PROF. ISO 1600/33° Grain: Not stated RP: Not stated ID: Neopan 1600 Fuji incorporates the "advanced-type High-Efficiency Light Particles" of its Polymer Mix Technology, along with an image-sharpening layer, in Neopan 1600 to produce a very fast black-and-white film with excellent grain and sharpness characteristics for its speed. The film can be exposed from EI 250-3200, with excellent results at speeds from EI 400-1600.
