Thank you Gerry!

I’m already using Oriental Seagull FB paper in my darkroom, it’s excellent, the inconvenient is that the only place I can buy it is in B&H, NYC, they don’t have an european dealer. About the film I’ve read somewhere it is manufactured by Harmann, who manufactures as well Ilford, Kentmere, Agfa and Rollei, but it is only sold in China or Japan, and it become quite expensive. Good eye my friend! I’ve read somewhere also it has a look or maybe formulation very close to the Neopan 400.

Cheers
Lluis
