I have been taking pictures for over 40 years now and have never even tried a film faster than 400asa, and I did that when I started as a teenager, and repeated from time to time to see what the fuss is about. I usually use Kodachrome 64, hence my need for a Leica as I am using wide apertures most of the time here in England. The only time I needed faster was in a crypt where the Kings of the Navarre are buried, there I used 800asa on my Canon D30 and got results way better than I would have had on film, it was a decisive moment for me. I can't imagine using >800asa as a matter of course!
