Very fast colour film question

Out of interest why 400pushed rather than 800?

In camera metering?

 

It's just personal preference really. I love the way 400H handles colours - the whites are so creamy and the greens so rich. By taking out some of the detail and adding a bit of grain, I find that pushing it one stop actually intensifies those things I love about it.

Thanks for the examples, which are very nice photographs. I like Steve's 'Lady With Coffee Cup' and Julian's 'Dude on Bench' :-)

 

Given the variable performance of the M8 in low light, I wondered for comparison purposes how fast film performed and scanned.

 

Am I right in remembering that there is in fact a Fuji 1600 colour film?

There's Superia 1600. I haven't tried it as I tend to lean more towards the Pro films for their lower contrast and less saturated colours.

 

If you do try some, be sure to post up some pics!
