I noted while reading about Garry Winogrand that he'd do everything he could to keep his shutter speed up around 1/1000th including pushing 400 ASA film to 1600 ASA. He insisted this gave him "that crisp look".
I need to try this for a while to see how I like it. I almost never shoot shutter priority and often let my speeds get below 1/100th, but I fear this softens all my handheld shots.
