I saw your pics. You are right, the 800 was grainy. However I have to wonder if we are using the same film. Mine never came out that bad. Nice shooting though. It looks like you have a steady hand!

Thanks! It was Kodak 800. All of the 400 came out good, even inside the hangars. The image through the viewfinder seemed dark, but the pictures inside there came out great. I have to go back and retake all of the inside pictures at livermoore with the new camera.

Aaaahhhh... I have used the Fuji 800 with success. I used the Kodak high speeds a number of years ago and didn't like the results, it looks like they have not really improved. I have been satisfied with the Fuji, although it is not as nice as the 400 for the final results, but then sometimes you just need the higher speed.

Mike, The grain aslo depends on how well it was processed.

Yes, If the chemistry was to warm or over concentrated it wll increase the look of the grain and density of the negative. Processing chemistry is a very fine art. Ollie, I don't think you want to drink beer made of this kind of grain :lol:
