It doesn't really matter if the slowest speed on a digital camera is 200. Grain isn't a factor, and from what I've seen I'd say there's no discernible difference in quality or noise levels between 100 and 200. If wider stops and slower speeds are necessary, an ND filter can be used.

I was looking through the list of available film @ B&H this afternoon and
was dismayed to discover that the only slow speed print film that's
available is Iford Pan F. I didn't see a sindle color print film with a
speed less than 100, and there were only a handful of slide films at those
lower ratings as well. What a distressing turn of events.


Does anyone know of some slow speed color print film that's available.
Bruce not too long ago introduced me to Konica Impressa and Godfrey just
posted a couple of pics made with Agfa Ultra 50. Both of those films would
have been good choices for a small project I'd like to continue with.


What's also annoying, though not to me personally as yet, is the lack of
slow speed ratings on the digi cameras, with, it seems, most not offering
anything below 100 and quite a few not offering anything below 200. Is
there some technical reason for this?
