I must say that I agree that XP2 or any chromogenic film has considerble latitude (two to three stops and still normal development can be used). There is no grain because there is no grain in the emulsion. Dye clouds are used just as with colour film. There is a limit to enlargement though because the chromogenics seem to lack sharpness. When I enlarge much past 11"x14" I get a soft look I don't like.

Yours,
R. Morrison, M4-P, etc.
