Processed in Ilford DDX at recommended times for ASA 3200, but rated at 1600. And have been very pleased with results. This combination especially impresses me with its ability to pull printable tone out of the deepest shadows. Far surpasses Kodak's high speed film in terms of grain, tonality, sharpness, et al. For the last few weeks I've tested Neopan 1600 using DDX and find it: slower in shadow speed (far less shadow detail). But I'm still working on processing times, etc. And have yet to try the "LUG loved" xTol on it. George
