You know, all the recent posts about the Nyquist theorem, sampling rates and film scanners has made me think again that certain film/scanner combos can result in what appears to be excessively large grain, but is really aliasing. It would be interesting to know if your wet prints show the same size grain or not. I get very fine grain from iso 400 color neg film on a 2720dpi scanner and I can't imagine your B&W is worse than that.

But the scanner found the grain pattern in the Neopan quite easily (developed in ID11 1:1 for 8:30 at 21deg C); I wonder if HP5 would have been quite so grainy.
