I had good luck earlier this year using 4x5 Portra 160 NC and also 4x5 Portra 100T using an 85B filter (after getting good advice from list members on the topic). A Kodak help-line technician (who is also a pinholer) told me that Portra daylight film (and I honestly can't remember if he said 160 or 400) can take a 10-second exposure without reciprocity failure. The tungsten film can go longer without reciprocity failure.
E6 Tungsten film cross-processed to C41 produces brilliantly colored prints. The color is surprizingly true, although definitely leaning toward surrealistic. ----- Original Message ----- From: "William Erickson" <erick...@ic.mankato.mn.us> To: <pinhole-discussion@p at ???????> Sent: Thursday, August 02, 2001 3:27 PM Subject: Re: [pinhole-discussion] Help Me Pick A Color Film > Does Portra come in 4x5.
