Different characteristics, and that I can develop my B&W films easily
and quickly at home.

But that said I've been experimenting with converting color films to
B&W and have had some nice success.  In particular Kodak Portra 400NC
has worked quite well on a few subjects lately.

But for traditional B&W I like using Ilford HP5+ and Fuji Acros 100.
