For more photographs, you can successfully use a name-brand, 200-speed print film like Kodak Gold or Fuji Super G Plus. Let's look at these three factors - speed, brand, and print vs. slide. The numbers - 100, 200, 400 - refer to how quickly the film reacts to light. A 400-speed film reacts twice as fast as a 200. Higher-speed film is used for action shots, because it helps reduce blurring, and for low-light, indoor settings. But higher-speed film also results in weaker colors and grainier images in your finished photographs than slower films. If your prints are blurry, try using a faster film. If you want better (less grainy) resolution for enlargements, try a slower film.
