Need 800-1200 Speed B&W Film

Hi,

I am looking for a film in the 800-1200 ASA range for night photography. I am not obsessed with fine grain. What I really want though is something with lots of latitude and low contrast. Sort of like a Tri-X. Something with lots of "shadow detail".

I am looking at Ilford HP5+ pushed. Will it be better developed in ID11 or Microphen for my purpose? What do you think of this film pushed?

What else can I try? I don't like the idea of TMax 3200 and Ilford 3200 and pulling them because they are both very expensive (3 times the cost).

So please advise me!

Thanks!
