But the pro lab I used then was in full operation and nary a spot on the 80+ rolls of negs. However, I did find the film prone to the tiniest of scratches. So returned to the hardier base of Tri-x and souping my own. That is until I sold most of my darkroom materials and equipment recently. Requiring if I shoot B&W I'd have a go at the BW400CN. However, the problem is, now must find a lab I can trust that wont screw-up the film in processing as was the case the other day with crud all over the negs. Either that, or shoot B&W digital. ;-) ted
