Any coments? : had the same experience with neopan 1600 - high contrast, thin shadows. my film was processed by a small b&w lab i've been using for about a year, and with whom i have no complaints. one of the owners recommended shooting delta 3200 at 1600 when i wanted speed. i've tried and had good results, much better than the neopan. it may well have been the chemicals they use, however. mark's post, and one or two other positive testimonies about neopan make me feel that perhaps i (or my lab) is wrong about this film. guy
