I’ve been trying out a new-to-me Nikkor lens on the Nikon D100, using Fujifilm Neopan Acros Black and White film, – old stock dated July 2013. I’ve never developed Acros myself before, (although Acros Film Simulation is one of my favourite shooting modes on the Fujifilm digital cameras).
I have to say, I really like this film. It has a beautifully soft grain, and gives great depths of contrast on the digital scanner.

If there’s one drawback it’s the price. (I got these old films as a gift from Victor McAuley, – Thanks Victor!) Acros, – now Acros II, is dearer than Ilford film stock, and there’s no bulk option. Having said that I’ve ordered a couple of new rolls for comparison.

Here’s some samples from Saturday last, developed in Fotospeed FD10 for 7 minutes.
