Well, actually, if you want a good BW image from color film you
need to use a
panchromatic enlarging paper like Panalure. Traditional BW papers
do not give
proper response

Stupidly wide exposure latitude.

The opposite seems true too. When you print chromogenic negs on colour
paper the contrast is completely different to BW papers. I tried using
chromogenics because I could get it developed and proofed (6x4s) in any
minilab in an afternoon, but the contrast problem made the proof useless
and I ended
