Im a bit confused. Wh would tricking my camera into thinking its 1600 help? Wouldnt all the shots end up underexposed?
Other cameras are a mju 2 zoom, another automatic compact or an Agfa Optima which lets you choose aperture. Only issue with the Agfa is that it can only do up to 400 speed film which wont work im assuming.
In terms on where to shoot I was more thinking whether or not night photography with flash would make everything overexposed? Sunny daytime the same? Either way I will just experiment with different options

Where won't matter so much, but I quite liked the idea of shooting at night. I've shot some in the day too, I can't see why you'd shoot it with normal day lighting conditions but that's just me. Do you not have another film camera? As I'd recommend shooting it at 1600 iso and getting it processed at 3200. This generally helps retain better shadow details as the film doesn't have much contrast.
If you don't have another camera it is possible to use a black pen and edit the silver strip of the film canister, so that it tricks your camera into thinking it is 1600 iso. Or simply shoot at 3200, it's up to you. I wouldn't think too much about it but there is plenty to read about it elsewhere online.
