Grain and sharpness appear slightly better with the PRN. (I shot part of a
roll of Royal 100 at the wedding when I ran out of the Pro 100.

I used it on the advice of my dealer. Since the wedding was outside, I was
concerned that I would have too much contrast and he suggested it. As it
turned out it was very overcast for MOST of the outside photos, but the sun
broke through on a few shots. Amazingly the contrast remained rather
constant in both types of light. Using flash the contrast was higher, but
not too high.

Cheers!
