In all of my years of shooting film, I used a few rolls of 1600 film and even pushed it to 3200 to shoot at night by candlelight. I used ISO 400 90% of the time. The M9 is fine at 400 or even 640 but you rarely need it with 1.0 or 1.4 lenses. Tina On Thu, Aug 19, 2010 at 3:53 PM, Richard Man <richard at imagecraft.com> wrote: > Why?
