Wow, a question that I have direct and relevant experience with... :-D

Have a look at http://www.elvum.net/gallery/dk - all but the last three were taken on Delta 3200 exposed at 1600 ('cos that's as far as the ME Super goes...) and a mix of flash and available light (mostly the latter - I assume you can tell the difference? :-P ). (The last three were taken on XP2 Super with flash on a Lomo Cosmic Symbol, but that's kinda irrelevant I guess...)

I'd recommend it.

In a couple of weeks, I'll be shooting a friend's band. A flash is right out, due to type of music they play.

I really don't know what the lighting will be like, except it will not be particularly bright. I'm thinking I'll need either 1600 or 3200. B & W, of course.

So, I'm thinking a 1600 film, that's pushable to 3200 with no problems, so I can take one film and use it at whatever speed the lighting dictates.

Any suggestions? I'm thinking Fuji Neopan 1600 or T Max 1600. Any thoughts on either or those? Other suggestions?

thanks,
frank
