Just to be sure we're on the same page, APX 25 is a fine grained
B&W emulsion.
Agfa films, both B&W and color, have been mentioned often on
this list, although it is true that Fuji and Kodak color films
are mentioned far more often than Agfa's color films.
The majority on this list - the great majority, I may add -
generally shoot color, so discussions and questions about B&W
processing tend to be minimal. Further, many B&W shooters here
shoot C-41 (Chromogenic) B&W films as opposed to real B&W
emulsions, which are processed like color films, so there's not
much discussion around true B&W films or B&W printing.
Hopefully that will change.
