Mickey:

All those films will work well, and I think that the three lenses will
also work.  I had a similar kit at the birth of my son, and I found that
the 50/1.4 got used the most.  The 4 layer films work great, but I would
recommend rating them 1/2 to 2/3 over exposed (e.g. ISO 800 at ISO 500).
The 800 speed (at 500) should be best as the 1600 might have too much
grain.

Good luck!

Hello again,
My daughter will be giving birth sometime this week. Full moon tomorrow,
or
induced on Thursday. I plan on shooting available light in the hospital
room, and in delivery if I can get there. I have 400 and 800 Fuji
Superia,
and 1600 Fuji press. Plan on using primes, 35/2.8, 50/1.4 and 100/2.8.
OM4t
and OM2. Not planning on flash. Don't know what kind of lighting I'll
encounter. Any reason why I shouldn't use any of these films?

I know the 400 has 4 layer, but what about the 800 and 1600? Can I
expect
reasonable color from them? If the color isn't pleasant, I can always
scan
and print B&W, which can be attractive, possibly better than color....
Thoughts?

Thanks,
Mickey
