It's funny you should recommend that now, since I've just gone through
ten rolls of Neopan 1600 after reading about it on the Photo.net forums.
I develop it in DD-X 1:4 and rate it at 640-1200. I think it's a little
contrasty at 1600. 

The flowers on my homepage were shot handheld in the middle of the
night, with only a streetlight for lightning, and rated at 1600:

This one is rated at 640:

It's the finest grained high speed film I've tried, better than many 400
iso films even.

I still like Tri-X a lot though...
