Yes
I'm used to using Ilford's classic films (fp4+, hp5+ and pan f+), but ran through a roll of this the other day. I quite like the results of it, seems very tolerant, and has excellent shadow detail.
My query about it though is the film base seems very dark compared to the others, is it this roll, or a general trait of this film due to different chemistry or some such?
 
It'll be because its meant for C-41 developing. Did you use B+W chems?
 
Nope, got it developed by the local lab so I know that's not to blame. Reading Ilford's data sheet for it suggests that this is normal, I should've looked before I posted this thread!
