If you're shooting color neg film, C-41 process is fairly standard. However, I still find that most color films process better when rated a half to a full stop slower than the indicated ISO. In other words, shoot Portra 160 at about 100 to 120. Shoot Portra 400 at about ISO 300. You'll get better negs. Color slide film, on the other hand, should be shot at the indicated ISO and exposed very carefully. Only with BW will you benefit from zone exposure and processing.

I didnt do that at first, of course, cause I didn't know what i was doing :) ann -------------------------------------------------------------------- mail2web - Check your email from the web at http://mail2web.com/ . -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
