Hey Craig,

I find your results very interesting. I have never
used the 800 but about a year and a half ago I did the
same kind of testing with Supra 400, Fuji 800, and LE
(PJ) 400. I found that just about anything beats Supra
for the first 30 minutes or so. But after that, watch
out, it kicked butt. Sorta like the tortoise and the
hare. I have never heard kind words about Supra 800
until yours... could be this film needs a closer look.
