Is the Kentmere 400 a good emulsion for 35mm?
Kentmere 400 is a very usable emulsion that I will be happy to use it if I need 35mm 400 speed black and white film. The film latitude and especially the shadow detail is fantastic and the grain is not too over powering. Kentmere is very easy to develop, as claimed, and the price is good for a 400 speed film.
What’s the difference between Pan 400 and Kentmere 400?

Which is better Kentmere 400 or Kodak Tmax 400?
Yes Kentmere 400 is no match for the amazing Kodak TMax 400 film. TMax 400 is the benchmark test for me for 400 speed 35mm film. (Ilford XP2 Super 400 is also a fine detail 400 speed B&W film but this is a C41 film). In terms of sharpness and resolution there is no contest, Kodak TMax is the clear winner.
