Response to B&W Wedding

from Mason Resnick (bwworld@mindspring.com)
I've shot a lot of weddings with Ilford HP5 Plus, developed in Ethol UFG. Nice soft results that compensate for the fact that I'm shooting with on-camera flash, and no blocking up of highlights in the bridal gown. Its response to highlight detail improves even more when pulled one stop.

I've also heard good things about Fuji Neopan 400, another "old tech" film that is similar to Tri-X, although it may run a tad contrastier than HP5. Maybe someone with direct experience with Neopan can comment.
