Recently Fuji introduced MS100/1000 (it is a >"pushable" 100 speed film).

I used it at 100, 200, & 800 (normal, P1 & P3) and in all cases, it is performed as expected. You cannot tell the difference between 100 & 200. Perhaps in a 16x20 it would be distinguishable. And at 200, it is equal to, perhaps better than, E200. At 800, MS100/1000 is definitely better than E200 at 800. Finer grain and more true colors. MHO Jim
