I tried it years ago. It has nice tonality but it is grainy compared to 
Tri-X or HP-5. The only truly bad thing about it is that it has a weak 
anti-halation layer, so there's a lot of flare visible around transitions 
between dark and light objects.

D-76 1+1 gave me the best results.

    Friends
    
    I have two rolls of FomaPan 400 film arriving from B&H. I have not used
    them before and will appreciate some advice from your experiences. 
Thanks.
