p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Kodak ends another film choice...


Hi,

Rattymouse just found this; I thought I would post just in case:

http://www.kodak.com/global/en/professional/products/films/bw400cn/main2.jhtml?pq-path=13402

I've used it in the past few months during travels to areas with no B&W processors, and it was pretty good IMO.

Regards,

Edd

sad to hear another film go but I could see why they discontinued it.
in this digital age, you can easily convert color C-41 to B&W and most that still shoot B&W are probably using the more traditional one as it's easier to develop at home.

I know how beautiful and grainless BW400CN can be which is probably why it never grew on me, I only shoot 3 rolls of it since I started getting into film

Sorry to hear that. I never liked the color cast in BW400CN but still sorry to hear it's going away.

I guess Ilford XP2 is still an option for B&W from C41.

Long ago, I did prefer 400CN to XP2 though.

No experience with this Kodak film, but as Tariq mentioned I have been using the Ilford XP2 which I consider very good. Since I don't develop my own film at home, C41 is the best option to have it developed in a store.

Kodak needs to put Eastman Double X in cartridges.
