Eg. you can push a 400 asa film to 1200 asa which would really grain it out.
Yes agree that Ilford 400 Asa I found you could push it to do most anything you liked,and still gives great results.But in the colour dept liked Fuji film for the
rich greens and reds,my favourite then was Fuji Asa 160 professional a
brilliant film for all portraits.But you had to get your exposure spot on,it was
very unforgiving that way,not like some of the other branded films with greater latitude.
