Response to difference between FP4 and PlusX

I disagree that Ilford products are generally better than Kodak's. I think you have to judge each on its own merit for the job you need. For instance, Kodak's Verichrome Pan film for 120 is wonderful, and Polymax papers are very good, too. Having said that, however, I think Ilford's FP4+ just kicks the everloving crap out of Plus X. The Ilford product is sharper, much less grainy, and has a better tonal scale.
