Why is that? > I suggested an 800 speed film with a "pop" of flash in that flash (at daylight temperatures) allows for a more true representation of prime colors than letting the ambient light decide what you will see. Flash also "separates" the subject [detail] from the background. The flash effect itself can be as little as 1/25th (four stops under and still give a pleasing effect. You might test a flash indoors to see what I mean. Slower films (ISO 400 or slower), let more of the orange-red spectrum in (onto the film) (or something like that). Faster films don't. **Someone who can explain the technical side of light can be more specific. Mafud [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
