How many different black and white films does the world really need? In reality, many of the products are very similar - or indeed identical (due to so-called "rebranding«). Ilford XP2 Super 400 is a film type that is the only one (remaining) in its class. This is because it is a black and white film that is actually based on color technology. A color film that is completely color blind - and therefore a black and white film. If this seems confusing, let me clarify a bit.
