re:Film: Kodak T400CN - Process C-41"

Paula, i am still kind of new to this, but i have used ilfords c-41 films, xp-1, xp-2, and kodaks t400cn, and the kodak select... most 1 hour labs will probably give you prints with a color cast, when using the t400cn film. however,being a "mini lab" employee, i can also tell you it is possible to get decent black and white prints from it, it does take some "tweaking" of the color channels, but its possible. it all depends on how "familiar" the lab tech. is with their printer. i find that the KODAK SELECT B&W gives better or more "true" black and white prints on color paper, and i wont use the t400cn anymore. ---also, a lot of posts here suggest trying true black and white film, which i am now doing as well. its a little more to learn about, but, you get all the control.you should give it a try. good luck.
