Black and White Films.
What are the Black and White films that can be process in C41 chemicals?

from wikipedia: Kodak manufactures a C-41 black-and-white film called BW400CN. Ilford, a British company, produces a similar film known as XP2 Super. Fuji produces a third film called Neopan 400CN.

on a side question will these C41 processable black and white film be more expensive or same or slight cheaper than the normal one then?

i got a roll of of kodak bw400cn for ard $6 in cathay.. more or less the same.. maybe slightly cheaper..? it's very convenient for lazy ppl like me.. haha.. can just process at any labs..

I think it should be the same as you need not change the chemicals like when you x-pro.

I'd highly recommend not to use C41 B&W films, because you cannot yield as good a quality as a 'pure' roll of B&W. Most of the shots I've seen from C41 B&W have a very high midtone. That is to say, your shots will be blanketed in grey tones throughout. The pictures will turn out grey and flat. C41 shots look like they've been shot in colour, and just 'greyscaled' in Photoshop. On the contrary, films like Rollei, Ilford Pan, etc. (the types of film that require dedicated B&W developers) will give you a higher contrast, a 'blacker' black, and a richer picture. Black & White is more tricky than colour photography, in actuality. Alot of attention to detail is required in composition. :wink:

Where can B&W films be developed?

has anybody here processed Kodak T-Max 100 before? Any idea what solution to process in?

can try using HC-110 or Ilfosol S. Advisable to use HC-110 (1 bottle abt 19 bux at ruby) . http://www.digitaltruth.com/devchart.html for the timings
