Mark,

How about comparing to Neopan 400?

Is the result of Neopan 1600 different from shooting Neopan 400 at EI1600?

Fuji Datasheet suggests that both 400, and 1600 are very versatile and
I can shoot them at EI400, EI800, EI1600, or even EI3200.

Any experience with both films?  For me, the Neopan 400 shot at EI800
seems to scan better than when shooting at EI400.

Thanks,

-Pasvorn
