RE: Nick Mertz says:"However, I do want to clear up the 
misunderstanding above.  The film I referred to WAS a black and 
white film.  I believe it was Kodak TCN400 which, under normal 
circumstances, gets C-41 processing and yields black
and white negatives."
 I am afraid Nick did NOT clear up a 'misunderstanding'! Actually the 
film which produces b&W negatives is truely a colorless color film 
and the images are dye images, hence the process in C-41. A 
similar film has been available for years as Ilford XP-1 & XP-2.
This C-41 film gives negatives (and speed of 400) that are 
extremely easy to print without dodging or manipulation. i.e. About 
likie normal negatives with a master printer. If downrated in speed 
the grainer gets finer and finer. Kodak just finally got on the 
bandwagon.  BobH
