I have used T Max 400 CN with some success.  It is very fine grained and has a
wide exposure latitude.  However, it is not as sharp as regular B&W films.
Additionally, the processing makes a large difference with this film.  Some
procesors know what they are doing with it and the results are quite good.
Others muck it up and produce muddy prints.  It can be printed on color or b&w
paper.  The results look quite different.
