I will probably be dead in a hundered years or so & thus would recommend XP-2 if you are looking for smooth, fine grain & super tonal gradation. I use Fuji Neopan 1600 for most everything & love it.(posted 8963 days ago)ANYHOW, a LOT has changed over the last 15 years - mostly you have many more choices and better enlarging papers, especially RC and multi grade.
