Shame as it has been discontinued! I was advised to shoot at 640 rather than 800 which is pushing it a bit. I didnt verify this as I only shot two rolls but it performed well at 640. I think Fuji havce decided that Provia 400F is so good, and pushes so well to 800 that they didnt need this film anymore. Pity as you have to pay extra to push provia to 800, but 100/1000 was pushed/pulled for free.
