You may not have noise, but there is reciprocity failure, for which
there are charts for B&W but which needs compensating filters in color,
(though I know of no one who's gone to the trouble).

I've been kicking around the idea of using film for night landscape work. Not
only do you not have trouble with sensor noise on long exposures, but my 20/1.8
works out to what would be a 13mm on APS, and would therefore be my widest FOV.
What film do people recommend for doing night landscape work?
Alternatively, is there a good/easy/cheap way to stack a bunch of (for example
10 second) exposures to get a much longer exposure with less noise and short
star trails? It would be preferable for me to do this in lightroom, but I also
have photoshop.
In a related note, on Saturday night, driving down the coast, I noticed that it
was a beautiful, clear, moonless night so I took a set of test exposures with
the Rollei (0.5, 1, 2 and 4 minutes). When I took them in to get processed and
scanned, I was told that Bay would scan at 16 bits on request.
It'll be interesting to compare them with the test exposures I took with the
K20.
