If you can share any prints from shots taken at 500 I'd find it useful

It does lose shadow detail compared to say hp5 at 400. I used it as my shutter speed on the rz is limited to 1/400th and i haven't picked up a ND filter which i really should do. hp5 would be more suited but i like the deep contrast at 500. less playing around with negative lol
i have yet to print these negs as yet only scanned. Now that things in the uk are slowly getting back to normal i hope to pick up a enlarger or head to my local darkroom soon. i will print and post on here.
