Can't speak for the 400 films, but when I recently asked for Fuji Press 800 
(their 'pro' ISO800 film) I was offered a better deal (3 rolls for the 
price of 2) on Superia 800.  When I asked, I was told that Superia and 
"Press" were the same film.  The only difference is that "Press" is bulk 
packed to the dealers. I must have looked skeptical, for he then pulled out 
his Fuji "bible" and lo and behold, it showed both films on one page, with 
one set of specs! He was right!

Perhaps the ISO400 story is the same.

Anybody know for sure?
