Hi, Personally I think the tonality of the masked Kodak C-41 is nicer than the Ilford, but someone on the list suggested exposing the Ilford @ 200 instead of 400 for better results. Try a test roll, bracket the exposures by a couple of stops - 100, 200, 400, 800 - and see what works for you. The nice thing about these films is their greater latitude, especially when scanning.
