I found the T400CN to be a good all round film and it scans quite well, although i like XP2 Super for portraits, it gives a really nice look to the subjects skin. I also find the XP2 Super easier to print in a real dark room. I noted what william said about the soft emulsion and have been extra carefull with it.
I also find the Fuji Acros scans very well.
