Godfrey, thank you for an awesome post. That is very good information. FWIW, I did some more digging around on Flickr etc and found two examples of XP2 shot at iso50 ... the results weren't horrible. I can find the links again if you like.
I've been expending quite a bit of energy researching traditional b&w films lately. But I've been shooting almost all XP2 since I can get it processed at a one-hour place. I'm starting to think that I'll just keep shooting XP2. I really like the results I'm getting. Though I'm not very happy with one-hour lab scanning, I'll just have to get my own scanner. I've been looking at ND filters too. Any particular brand recommendations there? I've always been pleased with the B+W filters I've had. Walter, I'm very sorry to be tempting you into more expenditures. ;;-D On Sat, Oct 16, 2010 at 9:22 PM, Walter Gilbert <[email protected]> wrote: > Please. I'm begging you.
