    I think for me that for most applications it would be useful in 8x10, and especially useful in ULF sizes. I might use it in 4x5 from time to time, but probably not much.

    Too fast for me; can't imagine using it in any size.

    I'd like to see it in larger sheet sizes, like 8 x 10 and 7 x 17.

    I love it for 35mm, like it for 6x7, but I'm not sure why I'd use it for LF.

    It would be great to use with a handheld Technica or Graphic. I would use quite a bit of it.

    Absolutely.

    There have been a number of occasions when a couple of sheets of Delta 3200 would have been very welcome. More times than I can count I have been forced to spend an hour or more hand-on-shutter-release waiting for that two second lull on a windy day. A couple of times this has happened in an on-again-off-again drizzle. Not a lot of fun, that.

    If you don't want motion blur from blowing vegetation, this is what you have to do. Unless you have another couple of stops of speed available. Going from 1/8 to 1/30 makes all the difference with shots like these.

    Since grain is really a non-concern with 5x4 and bigger, while small apertures are the norm, I can use all the speed I can get. I'll put my money where my mouth is too -- if Ilford will sell me Delta 3200 in 5x4, I will absolutely buy it.

    Go for it - "If you build it, they will come."

    I'd order a 100 sheet box. As for Delta 3200 actually being 1000 ASA, I learned that long ago when I was shooting it in 35mm.

    What I really miss is Delta 400 in 4x5, so I would snap up Delta 3200 in a heartbeat.

    I would try some for handheld 4x5.
