This is a lovely combination for me. Relatively little grain most of the time (don't overexpose this film for best results) very nice gradation, pretty good sharpness have been my experience with this combination. I just can not get images as good from TMZ or Delta 3200 even when rated at 1600. Obviously, this is not as good a combination as just about any 400 speed film. But when you are at F1 to F1.4 and hitting 1/8 or lower, then you are going to use a twinkie flash or use a faster film. I almost always choose the faster film.
