In the course of this weekend both my kids asked me for B&W film for their cameras; both use P&S, not Leicas (well they are only about ten!). When I asked my daughter she said it produced "different" images. She was very upset when I said she could get B&W for Adv***** cameras. (That is right isn't it?) My son was with me at Goodwoood (more of that later) shooting roll after roll of, as he calls them "action shots", of GT40s, Lolas and the like. When he ran out of film he asked me what I had left. On being told that I only had one roll of B&W film on me, he said "I'd like to try that". Needless to say he shot off the whole roll in probably unsuitable conditions. He wanted the images. A broad grin was on his face as yet another roll rewound itself. The film: why, FP4+ - of course. Peter
