Response to New Kodak PORTA B&W - C-41 process

from John O'Connell (boywonderiloveyou@hotmail.com)
I presume the Yellow Peril is introducing a "Pro" version of its B+W Plus. It'll probably be a big seller in 120.

B+W Plus is not as easy to print onto VC B&W paper as XP2 or T400CN: I found I needed to go up 1 contrast grade for B+W Plus. It's also just plain not as sharp as the other two films, though I don't really see why it shouldn't be.

The new Portra film will only interest me if its ISO speed is 100-160 or 800. (And don't tell me about T400CN being 800 speed; I fell for that one ONCE.)
