Here's the video I ended up whipping up for my latest experiment pushing Delta 3200 to 12,800. Short and to the point. It's got a little chart in there illustrating what I did to achieve such small grain in the image.

Whether or not this agitation scheme actually makes a difference I'm not sure as I haven't done any control at that iso. However I do note as do others that images shot and developed at 3200 and with agitation every minute yield similar grain or even more in some cases.

Interested in knowing your street video set-up. I like the idea of matching the moments in the video to the shots you took!
 
I almost pushed it this far in amsterdam but thought "That will have so much contrast it will give me a 2 bit colour image" it appears it would have been fine. I really like the second shot of the girl - it was on that other thread which must have teased this :p Great work
 
I'm glad you guys like it. I had done this type of a push in the past but never properly documented it so there wasn't much info out there on pushing this far without stand developing.

B-9, I've added the images from the video in the OP! They are far from my best work but the best of what I saw in the 2 hours I set out to shoot the stills for the test roll!

In earlier videos I'm just using a go pro clipped to the strap on my bag on my chest. I prefer it because it doesn't make my camera look huge but for this video I decided to put a mount on the camera itself to try to get a more unobstructed view (my arms tended to obstruct the camera when I was crouching for a shot for example, see my older videos if you don't know what I mean).

I wanted to experiment with putting the frame lines back in the video to help the viewers get a more "RF" experience. It's something that I don't think that I've seen too often on videos online. In actual fact, these frame lines match the Fuji G690 perfectly. The only exception is that there are also inner frame lines for the 150mm as well in my model. I omitted these to relieve confusion and one of these days I will delete the 150 frame lines from my 690 as well since I don't use it.
