Re: [Frameworks] spools, reels and rolls

I have always referred to rolls as the camera original, 1000' rolls go into the camera. Reels are the film for projection, so a feature is 5 x 2000' reels. It probably is that way because the physical device you put the film for projection on is a reel, and you never load the film into a camera

An incident light meter will not tell you much at all. It wont be possible to get incident readings of the projected images, especially if they are small dots (stars). In an ideal world you'd shoot a test. You might be able to determine the level by shining a light on the wall that looks by eye

To do it well, you need to be able to adjust the shutter speed continuously and by tenths of a degree. The Panasonic AF100 has this ability with its synchro scan function. I doubt that a DSLR will have that kind of fine tuning ability. On Sat, May 13, 2017 at 1:14 AM, k. a.r.
