I just got back some rolls shot at my daughter's 8th grade graduation. All in all, I shot 1 roll of Kodak Portra 800, 2 rolls of Agfa Portrait 160, 1 roll of Fuji NHG II and one 220 roll of Konica Portrait 160. I shot this variety due to changing light conditions and wanting to test the Agfa and Konica portrait films.
I was somewhat surprised to see that the Agfa portrait roll shot indoors with flash showed major shine on all faces. No blown out highlights, more like shiny makeup that really showed up. One shot had a guy in it that had no makeup on and he still had some shiny areas. I have been shooting lots of Kodak Portra and some Fuji portrait films and have not really seen this. The outdoor fillflash Agfa looked fine, just this indoor roll where flash was the main light looked bad. Has anyone else heard of or experienced this with Agfa Portrait before? I still have a couple of rolls to test with. Bruce - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.
