I've shot the occasional concert with a DSLR, but I'd like to try my hand at at shooting with my SLR and some high speed film. I've never shot with anything over 400 so I'm a bit clueless in this department. I'd prefer color, but if someone thinks a particular B&W is spectacular I'm all ears.
Kodak Ultra Max/Portra 800: finest grain in its class, but strong amber tint with tungsten (incandescent) lighting. As Portra it is overpaid.
Fujicolor Superia/Press 800: very fine grain, and virtually insensitive to lighting color temperature (daylight, tungsten, fluorescent, high-pressure mercury vapor, sodium vapor); delivers the most accurate impression of human visual perception. My preferred choice.
Fujicolor Superia 1600: fine grain, but limited underexposure latitude and in general slightly reduced color saturation compared to the 800 film.
Fuji Neopan 1600: contrasty, but wide dynamic range, with accentuated but moderate grain.
With Superia and Neopan 1600, the light of a candle will suffice.
