Subject: [Leica] OT: Ilford HP-5 in XP-2 Super packaging
From: "Ken Iisaka" <ken@iisaka.org>

I received information that one particular batch of Ilford XP-2 Super in
35mm 36 exp was packed with Ilford HP-5 instead.  The number of rolls out
there on the market is unknown, but the announcement was made through
Ilford's distributor in Japan.

The lot number is 53BXL1CO4-03.

At least, XP2 looks visually different, so it should be no problem detecting
a defective one.

Be careful out there.
