Thanks for all your inputs. We did tests over the last year, whenever we could. But shooting a documentary, and here there aren't any labs (that i know of), so it's a little less than ideal. Bigger challenge is the monsoon weather! Thank you again On Thursday, July 25, 2019, Jeff Kreines wrote:

Hold the meter in the same light that strikes your subject, and point the dome back at the camera lens. That’s how you use an incident meter. Don’t use the slide unless you know what it does. Use 1/50th of a second for most cameras at 24 FPS unless you have to compensate for the camera’s

Thanks, Jeff. I'm using a sekonic incidental (analog) light meter. If I rate it at 200 ASA Daylight, and open up two stops, this should be correct, no? On Wed, Jul 24, 2019 at 6:07 PM Jeff Kreines wrote: > How you use a light meter can also be a significant factor — poor metering > technique

How you use a light meter can also be a significant factor — poor metering technique can give readings that are several stops off. My personal preference is an incident meter. With reversal stock always err towards slight underexposure. Good luck. Shoot short tests. Jeff Kreines Kinetta

> I am not getting it. Is 200 ISO the native speed of the film? Or is it 160 ? It is both. The film is less sensitive to red light than to blue light, so if you expose it in red light, the effective ASA is lower. If you are exposing with tungsten light, you use 160 ASA, while if you are

Hi Pip & Shumona, I am not getting it. Is 200 ISO the native speed of the film? Or is it 160 ? Most Super-8 cameras have an orange filter for daylight. But for b one would always open the filter right? (Unless you want to use the orange filter in order to enhance the clouds…) So then how are

Hi Shumona, Actually the ASA depends on how you develop it. You can also push or pull by choosing your own ASA setting. If you develop as negative, the ASA is usually rated at 400, and as reversal at 200, in daylight. -Pip > On Jul 24, 2019, at 7:43 AM, Shumona Goel wrote: > > Dear

Call Kodak at 1-800-621-FILM, tell them you're a cash custmer and you want catalogue number 1889575. If you're in NY or Hollywood you can pick it up at the will-call area, otherwise they will ship it to you. --scott ___ FrameWorks mailing list
