One stop. 200 to 400 one stop. Ought to work... On the other hand, recognize your limitations, and work within the parameters set up by the manufacturer, for the best results! <g> IOW, altho' the maufacturer provides a + or - two stop correction, that allows a slide off the optimum, and you should be prepared for possible degradation in the results. I guess I got that right. Thanks, keith > Herb....
