I'm surprised at Ilford for doing a thing like that. Neopan to me is a true 1600 film and cheap but not tab grained. T Max (P)3200 is also a 1600 film P. stands for push and it's a little cheaper than the Delta. But for all it's big bucks i hate to see it come in at 1200 for me. Just could'g get enough shadow density with Xtol at 1600. But i use it at 1200 in 120 in my Rolleiflex! F16 and be there! mark rabiner :) http://spokenword.to/rabiner/
