Yep, it was a very versatile film and had a lovely tonal range — nice detailed blacks with long white range — and probably why it was so popular. I shot a lot of it in the day, mostly at iso 320 for a little denser neg. IIRC it could be pushed to usably to 3200, though it got grainy and contrasty fast after 800.
