Astrophotography Film

Hi all! I'm a newbee to astrophotography and I've been successfully taking piggyback photos with my OM-1 (tracking on my Orion SkyView Pro 8 EQ). The photos I've taken so far have been with the new Fuji 800 "4th color layer" film, and I understand that this film basically elminated the ability to resolve reds. I was wondering if you could give me some suggestions for print films to use for both piggyback and prime-focus (when I get the nerve). Most of my targets will be galaxies, nebulae, etc. Thanks!


1/31/03: Sorry all...I didn't realize this was posted in the Equipment Forum. I meant for it to be in "Astrophotography".
