I've been using TriX in D76 1-1 for over 40 years, its hard to beat. Not that 
there's anything wrong with HP5, or Neopan 400 or Agfa APX 400, or.....

Best thing to do is buy a 36 exp roll of each and see what you like.
Both are good films.

Looking at the B&H website, they have -seven- different 400-speed
films in 35mm 100' bulk rolls.

A recommendation I would give is the new TMAX 400  (TMY-2)
(though I have not tried it in 35mm!  I shoot 4x5 and 8x10)
unless you prefer the traditional grain structure films.

In any case, there is no substitute for trying the ones you are interested
in and seeing what YOU like.

Joel.
