Hi Jens Is that only with Fuji or with other brands too? Which fast color film (1600 or more if that exists in color) did you like best when you used film (in the good old days) ;-)
There was this wonderful fire in the night with lots of children and Chinese lantern walking around yesterday august 1 on the Swiss national birthday party I went to. That was a sad moment for me :-( b e c a u s e: I only had ISO 200 film loaded in two bodies taking photos of the fireworks over Zurich. (The digi users may smile here) I don't know if ISO 1600 film would have given me enough speed for handheld shots with the Tamron 90mm 2.5 and the Pentax A 50mm 1.7 I used most of the time beside a 28mm wide lens. I still tried taking some shots at 1-2 seconds on tripod and with the monopod , maybe I created a new "blurry night ad light style", I will see it in a few days ;-) direct flash would have destroyed the mood. greetings Markus >>Remember that the 1600 ASA Fuji actually is less grainy than the 800 ASA. >>Jens Bladt
