I would do Ilford XP-2 if you want to have it processed in C41. If you want a
'true' panchromatic film you can't go wrong with good old Tri-X, pelnty of
speed, classic B&W loot, excellent lattitude, forgiving of minor development
error, good stuff! If you want finer grained film, then go for Pus-x all the
advantages of Tri-x, (except the speed) and has finer grain to boot.
