Kodak publishes development specs for various TMax 3200 ratings, ranging from 800 to 6400. I suppose one could say it's actually an ISO 800 film, but that would be splitting hairs. I have used it quite often at 3200 with good success, although I find it looks much better at 1600. I don't like it at 6400. Too much grain and too much contrast for my taste. Paul
