t> I usually shot it at 100. True, the 160NC has little tolerance to exposure. I remember that even the DX coding is for 1 EV exposure latitude, just like slide film. If exposed precisely at 160, it's very rich in tonalities. However, some prefer it at 100/125 for a bit more saturation. I tried it at 125 ASA and found little gain in colour saturation, improved grain but it also lost some of its ability to compensate for the large contrasts. Servus, Alin
