Hi Julian,
Thanks for clarifying and setting the terminology straight. Also, thanks to those who have responded both on line as well as off. The EOS 30 has been really good to me, and I plan to try different films with it to see what else I can do with the camera. No other questions at this stage. Happy to lurk and learn. Best regards, Lawrance Lee ----Original Message Follows---- Date: Thu, 8 Nov 2001 15:17:49 -0500 From: "Julian Loke" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: EOS "Pushing" the exposure on a roll of film Hi Lawrance, First, you need to get your terms correct: PUSHING = underexpose, compensate with increased processing PULLING = overexpose, compensate with decreased processing The correct way to do this with your EOS 30 camera is to twiddle the ASA number using the "ISO" setting. It is important to do this rather than by applying exposure compensation, since only ambient metering is affected, but not the flash exposure. This is different for some older EOS cameras (like my EOS 1000FN), where applying exposure compensation affects both ambient and flash exposure together. I shall leave the discussion of the relative merits of overexposing C-41 processed film and rescuing on the RA-4 print for experts on other forums. Cheers Julian Loke P.S. With a little effort, almost any topic can be ON TOPIC :-) _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp * **** ******* *********************************************************** * For list instructions, including unsubscribe, see: * http://www.a1.nl/phomepag/markerink/eos_list.htm ***********************************************************
