More Contrast out of T400CN

from Mike Moore (8ball@vvm.com)
I'm new around here so please forgive any blatant ignorance.

I've started experimenting with Kodak T400CN. The results have, thus far, been satisfactory but not stupendous. I'm rating the film as 400 (I'm using Nikon N70 if that's of any importance) and using a local camera store for film processing. My question is how can I get more contrast from the film. I understand filters should probably be my first choice. But I'm wondering if I can change ISO ratings or have the lab do something at the processing end that would give me better results.

The look I'm after is B&W portraits where you can see every pore & blemish in all their beautiful/ugly glory.

Thanks in Advance, Mike Moore 8ball@vvm.com
