I have never used the Kodak BW400CN either, but I made the post for those who did use the BW400CN to show them that an alternative is available.

Really never saw the point of it, to be honest, other than process compatibility with color negative films.

I have used XP2 Super before out of curiosity, but it's not to my liking. There are some people who like it though.

I much prefer regular films like FP4, HP5 and Tri-X.
