Of all the photos I took, there were a few rolls of our kidz taken when 
they were young about 8 years on Kodak Gold 200. I wish I have taken them 
with a different film, the grain was the size of golf balls :-( The kidz 
were that young only once.

There is a large dose of truth in you never heard someone says, "Hey that 
picture looks pretty good, did you try to use a cheaper 
(camera/lens/film/processing)?"
