The exposures that I sent you did not include reciprocity failure, so yes you would have to compensate for that. The exposures that I gave you were based on sunny-16. They were also based on either a 18% gray card reading or an incident light meter reading. The exposure suggestions with your

Hi this is Lonnie: I have a question about your answer to Bill about pinhole exposures @ f/500 with ISO 100 film. Looking at my light meter without any reciprocity corrections a sunny f/16 exposure should be about 8 seconds @ f/500. If you have heavy sun as well as bright snow I would use 4

Hi this is Lonnie. Your exposure, I would try 4 to 8 seconds in bright snow with a bright sky, which would probably give you a EV15 to EV16 with an ISO 100 film. Glad to hear you are using an 8x10 camera. I am thinking of making an 8x10 camera out of banker boxes. Lonnie

Bill, Here is a brief analysis I've done: Assuming bright open sky conditions, shooting snowy scenes call for about +2 stops from whatever the meter indicates for the snow. Using sunny/16, your exposure should be f/16 @ 1/25 secs. There are about 10 stops separating f/16 from f/500, there

Hello All! I could use some help here. We just got a wonderful spring time snowfall yesterday (10") and it got me out and about with my 8x10 pinhole camera (due to the extra light reflection of the snow). I tried using Polaroid type 804 ASA 100 (first time using this film) and I can't seem to ge
