We're more heavily clothed at this time of the year and it fits comfortably in a coat pocket, or in my case, the inside "wallet pocket". So it's just part of my dress. In the warmer months we don't wear jackets or suits, so it has to compete with a lot of other stuff, but not now, this is the perfect season for it. The film for 35mm was HP5+. I'd used Neopan if I could just pick it up off the shelf, but the only films in b&w that I can do that with (and that I care about) are Tri-X and HP5+. Things must be getting tough. I find myself still being able to pick it up off the shelf, but I am also finding that I need everything _on_ the shelves. The stores aren't carrying an oversized inventory.
