Guys: what speed of film are you using. It really should not be an issue if you're using a slow speed, high saturation film. 100asa or less... In a message dated 4/28/02 11:49:01 AM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: <> - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http:/

If you can shoot at f22, either increase your shutter speed or decrease your film speed. I don't believe I have ever had to shoot at f22... In a message dated 4/28/02 10:38:41 AM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: < wrote: Why would you want to use 1/22 in the first place? I am just curious.>> - This m

I might get the name wrong. What i meant is the effect you get when you set a really long exposure (1s+) and get the water washed out (kinda like a veil) rather than stopped in action. I rarely have film slower than 100 and often even that is too fast if I want to have a reasonable (>1/8) aperture
