Acros in Xtol certainly has a nice look to it. How do you like it compared 
to D100?

Neopan 1600 is nothing short of amazing behind a good lens.  N1600 in Xtol 
shot with a wide open 35/1.4 ASPH is a great low light combination.

Both Acros and N1600 scan well. Piezo printing does great justice to those 
films. Acros has cutting edge acutance. And N1600 maintains incredible 
shadow detail. When it comes to developing, it seems to be less fickle than 
the 3200 films. And N1600 is just as fast.
