<< What are your impressions of these two films?  I am going to choose one of
 them to shoot pictures of people in their natural surroundings >>

T400CN works rather well.  It is very fine grained.  But, it is not as sharp
as other (normal) b&w films.  The results depend on correct processing and
printing.  If it is not processed correctly, the photos lack good contrast and
are muddy.  If developed and printed correctly, the results are good - but a
little soft.
