I bought some stuff last night & the seller's wife cleaned out the freezer of all remaing film as part of the deal. 
There was one roll of Fujichrome Multi-Speed with developing times for ASA speeds 100-200-400-800-1000. Does anyone have any experience with this film? Is it useful at 1000? I was thinking about loading a body with the film and using it for low light special occasions.

Would like to bump this thread too, as I'm about to purchase a load of it too...any experiences?

Back when it still existed we used to call it "the flower film". It was the most "Japanese" of all Fujichromes I ever used - it had excellent greens and purples, but skies and skins often looked artificial. Colour was neutral to subdued at 100 but became vivid to bizarre when pushing.
I'd stay off pushing it - the stuff must be seriously expired by now (superseded around the turn of the millennium and not made that much longer, IIRC), and even when new, it became more colourful than Velvia when pushed to 400 or up. By now, pushing it would presumably turn any group of grey-suited men into a gang of clowns...

I used a lot of it in the 1990s. It worked well at 1000, but the colours were weird and I think I remember that it needed longer in the first developer to get the push to full speed than Fuji suggested.
