This response confuses me. If you are shooting in low light conditions,
wouldn't you use the full rated speed of the film, namely 3200, to get
the most exposure from what little light there was? On the other hand,
if shadow detail is more im****tant to you, then shooting at 1600 will
give you a little more shadow detail. So I guess the answer to the
original question is "it depends".
