Try a few old-fashioned developers with it, like Rodinal. Or Ethol TEC,
You might find some good results.

Jeffery:

>The Acros costs twice as much. There's gotta be some difference.

The Acros is 3.69 vs. 1.99 for the SS.

But, the US Neopan 400 is 3.99 compared to 2.49 for the import that's
the
same stuff.

So the price difference didn't seem to be a big deal to me.  I tried a
few
rolls of the import 400, and as far as I can tell, it's the same
quality.
So I felt safe getting the import 100.  Oh, well.  It was cheap.  $40
for 20
rolls.  I don't use much 100, anyway.  If it's that bad, I can probably
give
it away to somebody.  :)

Thanks for the added info, Tom & Nathan!
