kodak technical pan is a 25 ASA document film which can, using ultra low-contrast
developers be used for pictorial applications.  despite several problem areas
(extended red-sensitivity, high contrast) it is commonly regarded as the finest-grain
and highest-resolving emulsion readily available for 35mm photography.

neopan acros is fuji's new 100 ASA film which has aroused enthusiastic interest:
