... I think XP2 often gets overlooked because of the C41 weirdness. But it is very good IMO The "C41 weirdness" is the main selling point of this film because it allows ICE-based dust removal. For that reason alone I will always have XP2 on hand.
If Ilford could made a PanF-like film in a C41 process I just might dump all other slow bw films.
True, I totally forgot about the benefits of ICE dust and scratch removal! I think another selling point for the C-41 weirdness is the lack of grain. Despite my somewhat bungled cross-processing experiment, my results were almost grain-free, even when viewed at 300% magnification.
