Ferrania P33 Developed in Flic Film Black, White & Green

Good video and I agree with your conclusions, Andrew. I wonder what the real speed of this film is? It says ISO 160 and while it may not be that for some users, it surprises me if it necessary to drop it a whole stop to EI 80

Of course most reviewers just state what ISO they are told it is without checking but assuming nothing was "faked" in the comparison shots I saw on one review I preferred all the P33 shots to FP4. P33 had a punch and vibrancy that FP4 lacked.

It's all down to taste of course but in the portrait shots the lady was the kind you'd take to the Cotton Club of the 1920s in Ferrania and was more of a pale and interesting lady to take to Glynbourne in FP4

The P30 cassettes I got a while back are reusuable. The P33's are not. I'm assuming that is the case now for current P30 cassettes.
 
I agree with your conclusion. Negatives were a bit thin.

It seems to me, that the Green developer lacks activity compared to your XTOL results.
