Hey troops.
Just was thinking here,sorry but i do once in a while,:-) about using my yellow
#8 with
B&W film,
shooting in snow.
I don't always use filters, so when i meter for a snow scene, i meter, then
open up about
1 1/2 to 2
stops to "fool" the camera into giving me white snow as apposed to gray snow.
Now my question. If the yellow is on, i have to add 1 1/2 stops anyway to
compensate. Will
this add
up to my normal stop and a 1/2 or do i need to continue say another stop to get
my white
snow.
I have shot some photos with what the meter said then opened up a stop or so,
but i have
yet to
develop the film to see.
Just want to ask, as its snowing like crazy her the last 2 days and i'm itching
to get out
and shoot
all these lovely snow covered Spruce trees.
Dave
