Also "Fast" and "Slow" refers to shutter speeds! So slower films will generally meter with slower shutter speeds because it needs more light. And Faster films will meter with faster shutter speeds because higher iso films need less light!

JAMMED SHUTTER FIX FOR BESSA R2A & R3A (For when your R3A's shutter jams (usually at the end of a roll): 1. rewind and remove the roll 2. close the film back 3. turn the dial to a manual shutter speed (taking it out of auto) 4. complete the wind and trigger the shutter. Note: if you leave the dial in "auto," the shutter and lever remain jammed. Ha ha. The Zeiss Ikon has the same Copal shutter.

Confession, I watched this twice & I should've taken notes! Used my porta 160 indoors with my digital mindset - "oh it'll be fine, just push the iSO to 800! (could have been more, don't remember). I just got the scans back and now it all makes sense. High grain, sorta expired film glow. Def won't throw the scan away - but it was a good user experience seeing how far the iso films can go. Thanks for the edu.

Or you can pull Kodak P3200 or Ilford 3200 down to 1600 - that’s what I do. Using a fine grain developer like X-tol minimizes the grain of 3200 film a lot. When I tried Rodinol on these films, the results were course and unbearable.

"The higher the ISO the more grain you are going to have...." That is not always true. Generally higher higher ISO films have more grain. However sometimes two different film speed from the same company can have the same grain size but the resolving power of the slower film will be greater. I have portraits I shot in the 90's on 25 ASA film. I can see one strand of hair standing up on 4 by 6 prints. Back in the 90's Kodak Royal Gold 25 and Royal Gold 100 had the same size grain but the resolving power of the Royal 25 is higher.

@garyives12184 ай бұрын
Just a beginner here but I'll mention vintage cameras and shutter speed. I got a Pentax Spotmatic (1960s) a couple months ago. I'm not sure what more modern 35mm cameras max shutter speed is but the Spotmatic is 1/1000 second. I haven't tried an ISO400 film yet, but imagine that on a bright day ISO400 might actually be too sensitive ideally warranting a faster than 1/1000 shutter speed. Any thoughts? Then again, maybe I'm just used to leaning towards wider apertures. Smaller apertures like above f11 probably take care of this and bring down shutter speed quite a bit.

@gutti49124 жыл бұрын
You need to push +2 TMax 3200 to get it to 3200. It's native around 800-1000 without pushing but developed to be pushed without big loss of detail. In that case Delta 3200 just needs push +1 in my experience. This film is native at a little less than 1600 from what I've read and can confirm from my experience...

@williamking14174 жыл бұрын
There is. Don't panic. All you did here was "push" the 200 iso film to 400. If you have not finished the roll yet don't change anything. Just finish it as if it were a normal roll of 400 iso. If you are using a commercial lab to process your film just let them know when you drop it off that it was pushed to 400. Pushing film is something that is done quite often and the lab will know how to process it properly. If you are developing it yourself there are tables you can Google search to give you the adjustments you will need to make to get the best results. Hope that helps.

Hey, I've recently completed my photography coursework. From my findings, I would use the 800 films as they're great for night photography. I've used Kodak 400 ultramax and some black and 400 films on an automatic film camera. They didn't come out very good as there was constant ghosting, bad exposures and blurs. After my transition to a manual film camera. I've used the Portra 800 films (prices werent too high earlier this year in the UK compared to the current trend and prices). They have displayed nice exposures, colour definition and nice detail (I try to aim for a 1/125 shutter speed). If you ask your developer not to edit the image, the film gives the image a heavy dose of yellow saturation within the image after using HDR Toning. Don't worry, this can be easy fixed and the yellow saturation being removed in the camera raw filter (Photoshop). I will be posting parts of my film photography coursework after Aug/2022 on instagram @Chen_On_Earth if you are intrested in seeing them. Good Luck : )

Hey man. Coming from digital, I’m used to underexposing like a mad man (sometimes I’ll just leave my ISO at 100, set my aperture to get the DoF that I want and adjust shutter speed as needed). Because I want to get in to shooting film: do ISO values for "correct" exposure in my digital camera translate to the same ISO values in film? In other words: if I pay more attention to exposing correctly with my digital camera, will that tell me which film speeds would work for the type of shooting that I do?
