I like to use ,now, the Portra 160 or 400 VC films.Would the NC films be the Kodak equivelent. Its worth a try as they say,film is cheap:)
Dave ---- Begin Original Message ---- From: Stephen Moore <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Have you considered a lower-contrast film? I've had much this same problem with motor racing and this spring tried NPS 160 where I'd normally use Superia or Supra 100. In harsh noonday sun it worked really well, took just enough of the edge off to make a nice, balanced print come straight out of the minilab. The flip side for me was that when the harsh light went away later in the afternoon (it got softer and partly cloudy), the balance and color rendition stayed good, but the detail and overall effect became noticeably more...muted, I suppose...a bit like a painting. Could be good in many contexts, but not quite right for race cars. Will try to get a couple of scans online in the next few days.
