Replacement for Agfapan APX 25

from Bill Mitchell (bmitch@comcast.net)
It's been more than a year since Agfapan 25 was discontinued. I didn't think that I was going to miss it, as Technical Pan is both sharper and virtually grainless, but there have been many situations where I simply can't adequately control it's contrast, even though I have tried Technidol, POTA, and Diafine; (I have not tried PKM). Frankly I haven't found a good replacement for APX25. There are some films with better sharpness, but more grain (such as TMax100), and some with fine grain but less sharpmess (XP-2s). Unfortunately, Pan F just barely misses on both counts. I wonder if others have the same problems, and what they have done to fill the void. Thank you.
