I have not gotten good results with silver halide ultrafast film. You might get better results with pushed 400 ISO film than Neopan 1600 or Delta 3200. If I HAD to shoot a film at 800, I would probably just greyscale Fuji 800 color film. That's not much help if you are developing it yourself. Kodak BW400 has so much latitude, you could probably shoot it at 800 and not bother having the development altered.<< Good advice Jeffery. I've tried many fast films but I've had the best luck with TMY rated at 800, developed in XTOL. So maybe I should just stick with that. Or go the BW400 route. I've had really good and really bad results with Neopan 1600. I just haven't used it in a long time. It seemed to do best rated at 1000. daveR
