Hi;
         I have yet to hyper some.  Shoot a few boxes of it daylight.  Nice 
stuff, but the 400 ASA is really a 200 ASA, but otherwi9se is hard stuff to 
mess up.   I haven't had a chance to do squat this year, but I plan to get 
some eventually, hyper a roll,a nd see how it works out.  Cheap enough though.

         In Canada, Eight elm Camera stocks it, and in the USA< you can get 
it from here

         J&C specializes in hard to find B&W films, form 35mm to sheet 
films,s o wroth a look.  Thier "house brand" J&C film  film, is, I am 99% 
certian ,  Forte Pan from Hungary.    at least the specs are nearly identical.

         Anyhow, for those of you looking for hard to find B&W films, worth 
a web link.
