Hi, Gianfranco Thanks for the input. After making my question I found this info on Kodak UK website. Maybe it is usefull for you too: "An integral part of the development for the new Royal Supra 200 film was for its grain when exposed at ISO 100 to be similar to that of the current Royal 100 and Supra 100 professional film. This goal was set to allow photographers for whom fineness of grain is the prime criterion in film selection, to be able to use the new Royal Supra 200 film rated at 100, free of any grain worries. Having the world�s best grain at 200 speed and improved sharpness, the Royal Supra 200 speed film is more versatile than a 100 speed film, while still meeting the image structure needs of previous 100 speed users. This makes it a good replacement for the old Royal 100 and Supra 100 professional films, which will be discontinued."
