I'm surprised you could find this exquisite film! I loved it! It's
truly a remarkable film. At a speed of 1600 ISO, it has relative fine
grain, even finer grain than some 400 ISO films. The tonality is
great and handles very well in poor lit conditions. It is a high
contrast film and gives great tonal range. Great latitude as well.
If I had to rate it out of 5, I'd easy give it a 5. I loved it. Just
remember it's constrasty. Perhaps shoot at 1250 to help shadow
detail. Or shoot at 1000 for dark subjects against a light
background. What a great find Jim! Enjoy it!
