Bob, it's the Summilux 50 asph, of course.
Pay attention when I post, there may be a test later!
More seriously don't you love the long mid tones from the Neopan 400? It was 
Marty that really inspired me to go to XTOL 1:3. The
film bases are superbly clear. I think I actually need to try reducing the 
standard time now (since my agitation routine is probably
quite vigorous)

Cheers
Hoppy
