Not all, usually the rock & fern non-breathing things subjects people accoustomed to shooting fine grain films. They'd have a go at TMX 3200 then bitch like crazy that it did nothing but make horrible grain filled images. Some of them after a 2 stop push! :-( 12,800 ASA All one can do is roll yer eyes sit quietly, let them go on their rant. :-) And sit back and enjoy your coffee, beer or drink of the day. cheers, Dr. ted ----- Original Message ----- From: "Nathan Wajsman" <photo at frozenlight.eu> To: "Leica Users Group" <lug at leica-users.org> Sent: Saturday, March 02, 2013 9:21 AM Subject: Re: [Leica] IMG: TMZ 3200 > The grain is fine.
