film speed question

lithos, TMAX 3200 is a low contrast film (so that highlights do not bloom) made to be pushed to 3200 or higher .
Exposing it as 1600 will give you very good images with nice shadow detail and a decent tonal scale.
Just shoot it and develop as recommended for 1600

No mention was made of sharko pull processing.

Granted, it's not that hard, but I just went with the idea that the film was gonna be processed at 3200.

Think I've mentioned on another of these threads the true speeds of all the high-speed films out there.
