The new Kodak Gold and Gold Max films use the relatively new and proven =
T-grain silver halide film emulsions. The silver is flattened (rolled or =
calandered) to squeeze the most reflectivity out of each silver crystal. =
Each silver crystal takes on a flat triangular shape with a "T" like =
corners to them. This allows them to use less silver and to use it more =
efficiently. This process has several advantages. One is extreme =
latitude of exposure which occurs because there is little space between =
the silver particles and because the silver undergoes it's changes so =
quickly. This extreme latitude allows you to "push" 400 ASA/ISO film far =
beyond its recommended ASA setting. While you may change the ASA/ISO =
setting for each frame, the processor will not know that, nor can the =
processing machine account for that. The processing machine will only =
"push" or "pull" the film to the extent you notify them of. It cannot =
change processing time or temperature for each individual frame, only =
for the entire roll. Be sure to tell your processor that you have =
exposed the film at ASA/ISO 800, or 1000, or whatever so that they can =
account for that in the processing.=20
If you develop the film yourself in your darkroom (a surprisingly simple =
procedure since the only time its really dark is when you load the film =
into the development canister - the rest is done in normal room light) =
you can experiment with different development times and temperatures to =
get maximum sharpness, minimum grain, and truest colors. Still, you can =
cannot isolate an individual frame. You would need a large format camera =
for that, where you only develop one 4" x 5" or 8" x 10" negative at a =
time in its special film holder. I hope that answers your question.=20

I've shot with this film with OK results. The nominal speed of the film
is 800, so that's what you set your camera for and leave it. The film =
has
a great deal of latitude and is thus very forgiving. Because of this it
works OK in bright and dim conditions. For real "punch" I still prefer
one of the better slide emulsions.
