With a tripod a super fast film isn't necessarily a must have. I have some Kodachrome 64 slides of nightime scenes that look exceptional. Of course, the color balance is wrong, but this isn't always a problem especially with neon sources.
Kodak makes a slide film with moderate speed that is tungsten balanced, the E320T. This might be the right choice. Only remember, if there's a moon out moonlight is the same a daylight. For black and white I'd go with Tri-X. Easily pushed one or two stops. For color neg, well, this one is tough. Most are balanced for daylight. Correcting with an 80A is difficult to do at night, if not impossible. There is the Portra 100T that would require no color correction but it's slow which means long exposures. -Brendan MacRae - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
