The shot on my web page is not pushed, or I would have noted it.  I've
used the stuff unpushed and pushed one stop, and haven't noticed any
problems with grain either way.  The only time I push it is when
shooting at f/7.9 through the TMB152, in order to keep the exposures
shorter.  At f/4 through the Borg, it's just as easy to go another 10-15
minutes.  On bright subjects (Rho isn't one of them!), 15 minutes at f/4
will record an amazing amount of nebulosity on this film.

Sincerely,
