Response to best grain in 400 speed?

Hi, my two cents worth is putting in a word for neopan 400. I just finished printing a show for a photojournalist who used it in Nairobi (black skin in bright sunlight), and even when they were a bit underexposed, I could get beautiful rich tones and wonderfully fine grain. One of my grad school comrades used it in Mexico with equally wonderful results. Standard d76 1:1 for 10 minutes at 68 degrees, agitate for the first minute, then 10 seconds each minute for the remaining time. This is just a starting point...I would test first. Good luck.
