Its a higher number iso with the same quality that you'd gotten in  the past
with a lower number iso.
This certainly happened with film yesterday on the lug I was mentioning how
the 800 films of today have the grain and apparent sharpness of the 200
films of the early 80's.

To be able to shoot at f 5.6 at 125th instead of a 30th is going to make for
better images. There's not getting around it.
