So, in a fit of boredom I decided to buy something on the bay. Just for kicks. So I bought a 20 pack of Kodak Ektapress PJ400 (35mm). I've seen a few samples of stuff shot with this on flickr, and it seems to have that natural tonalty that I like, but I was wondering if anybody here has used it? More pertinently, has anybody pushed/pulled it (if so, samples perhaps?)?

I used it back in high school 15 years ago. How outdated is the stuff you bought? I haven't seen it available new in many years. Having said that, it had VERY good skin tones and contrast, with fine grain. I used a lot of it, but never pushed it or pulled it. It handles overexposure well, I wouldn't bother pull-processing if you overexpose it. Don't know about pushing, but it was said to be good for that.

This was shot with it:

I think it is about 5 and a half years old, but according to the chap has been stored appropriately. As I said, it was a fit of boredom, and it cost me just under £6 (or $12) for the box of twenty.
