That's one reason why I'm using slower film. But I can also alleviate that a bit by taking one of my newer vintage cameras with a top shutter speed of 1/2000.

Sometimes fast film takes away that ability to make focus work for us. I'm sure you encounter this all the time. Go outside and it's all f16 and be there. When Old Sol is in the sky we are at his mercy. I started carrying around a 39mm neutral density filter (4x). I can pretend I'm shooting 100 speed film, have the control of picking the aperture of my choice and still use one film. Walt > > _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
