My best crummy weather film has been PKL (Kodachrome 200) but I have also done well shooting K64 with fast glass and ditto for Provia. I have gotten richer, more saturated colors from K64 under soft lighting as it really is a high contrast film. This can be seen in full sun shots where the shadows go completely black whereas K25 will usually retain some detail. Provia pushed one stop has been spoken highly of elsewhere but I have yet to try it. Unless there are spring greens or autumn colors to had in cloudy/rainy weather, I will mostly shoot black & white and copy the prints later onto slides for a slide show if needed. I love B&W but am probably in a distinct minority. Mike Gardner --> SPORRS: Serious Photographers of Railroad Related Subjects X-Mozilla-Status: 0001 Content-Length: 2229
