APX 100 is a wonderful film, lovely tonal range, grain is there as standard and I'm assuming this is not from a print due to the shadow detail in the hair. I wouldn't worry too much about grain, the picture you've posted is wonderful, as is the other in the shopping centre. The shopping centre one looks a little flat, but it isn't. The tonal range is all there, note the centre of the eyes, they are completely black. Both are excellent shots, but this one of the reader is quite compelling to me. Mick.
