Has anyone actually kept track of how often I have posted that push processing C-41 film is a fools game? I'ts gotta be a couple of dozen times now. Anyway, if you think you need 1600 iso, shoot 1600 iso. If you underexpose 800 by a stop, no matter what you do to the film, you will still have 1 stop underexposed negatives. William Robb
