I'm trying out my new GX680 at the moment, doing street photography. Here are a couple, bot on Fuji Acros, the first one with 180mm f/5.6 and the second with 65mm f/5.6:
These are really great...I haven't used Acros much but these make me want to try it out again.

Great results, but do you need physical therapy after carrying that beast around all day?

Thanks, Jud. So far, I like Acros a lot. It seems to be a good compromise between a classic "look" and the flexibility and latitude of a modern b&w film. I still like Ilford Pan F Plus 50 better, but the Fuji is cheaper and a stop faster, so much easier to live with.

I've tended to go with Pan F or HP5 for street shots Jorgen - Acros has always seemed too contrasty when I've used it before, but your results are very different to and better than anything I've been able to get with Acros. Gives me something to aim for! Cheers.
