POTD 102 of 365

Shooting a new (to me) film this evening. PPS (remember them?) had some Ilford Delta 3200 in stock, and I wanted to see what a real high-speed film can do.

So far I've popped a few shots with the new film, and, even overexposing by a stop and a half with the 50 at f/1.8 reads as hand-holdable even under weak lighting. Removing the exposure compensation and I'm shooting at 1/250 under my relatively low-powered kitchen lights. Spicy!

The urge to tear through this roll is very high, but, I'm going to try to pace myself a bit. This film, unlike Tri-X, ain't cheap, at around $10 for 36 exposures.

For this evening's shot, expect either a cat, a water bowl, or The Missus.

It's a cat!
