Marc,

After ten years I'm still very happy with Ilford FP4+ in a pyro developer
such as PMK for both traditional and digital processes.

Your best bet in the long run is not to look for the "ideal" film and
developer combination but to choose something reasonable and stick with it.
Someone who becomes expert with their chosen materials will get much farther
than those who endlessly experiment.
