I absolutely agree with you. However, remember that my comments were about
the typical P&S users (those who fire their flashes on a stadium), so your
gear and technique are *well above* from them. We must buy film in more
serious stores ;-)
400 is a nice film speed for general use. If I need a slower shutter speed,
I can place an ND filter on the lens...
