Re: Skylight Filter + Tri-X

Thank you for all responses.
I wish i could edit the title of this post or something.

But another question for you all.

I went ahead and got a Green filter for the Tri-X.
And picked up an ND filter of 0.3

I plan on using the ND for 100D in pretty bright conditions. good idea?
and also, what ...

Your auto exposure will automatically account for any light loss when using filters, for more dramatic results with filters try using the coloured filters discussed in that link on future shoots.

To really learn, why don't you shoot some stuff ...

Re: Skylight Filter + Tri-X

And let's just say I'm going to have it set on 'Bulb' and just use Auto Exposure.

Skylight Filter + Tri-X

So, I have a Nizo 481 Macro and some Tri-X 7266.
There was a filter that came with the camera (from cheap super 8 camera shop)
It is a B+W 49ES KR 1.5 1.1x Skylight Filter

Will using this filter along with the Tri-X in daylight work well?
What should I expect other than a loss of light coming in ...

Exposing Tri-X Correctly

Alright, I've seen other topics about this, so sorry about making a new one....but question for you all.
I'm a complete n00b.

I have a Nizo 561 Macro that I want to shoot some Tri-X 7266 in.
So far it seems the best bet is to set the filter on 'Bulb' so it will read the cart as 160.
But in ...

Re: SANKYO EM-60XL manual Please?

I have no idea about that one. If a camera can read 100asa it should expose it correctly, unless there is something else wrong with the camera.


thanks, someone replied. and I guess my Sankyo will meter it correctly.

Re: SANKYO EM-60XL manual Please?

I will take a stab at it: Tungsten


thank you.
that's what i was thinking.
ive asked a few other people and they haven't replied...

i've seen a few things where people say that the 100d is overexposed or underexposed in cameras that only read 100/160
is this ...

Re: New to Super 8, Questions!

Thank you for the reply.
i'm a camera n00b.

Where can I find a light meter?
I bought this off of craigslist for $12, thinking it would just be really easy and stuff.
and i'm baffled at the different specs cameras have and different films.
Amazing, i love it

New to Super 8, Questions!

Okay, so I recently bought a:
Bell & Howell 1208 (don't know the ASA stuff) and a
Sears Easi Load C115 (this I know is only 25/40 ASA)

I'm assuming the Bell can go to like 100/160. So I'm fine with Ektachrome 100d and Tri-X B/W Reversal correct?
But what about the Sears piece of crap that I got for ...
