Well the other day I was loading my M's and put Velvia in one and TCN in the other - and then mixed up setting the exposure so I thought...well you get the idea. The Velvia didn't stand a chance at being shot at 400. Total waste. But the TCN shot at 50 turned out to be pretty useful. So now I'm wondering if I'm better off shooting it at like 160. There were some blown highlights in some of the images but my Nikon coolscan 4000 seems to really do well in that environment, much better with these dense negatives. Here's a portrait from that roll of my son, taken indoors (obviously) summicron 50mm, wide open, slow shutter speed <http://www.splitsecondfilms.com/2003Images/tom.jpg> I'm struggling with how to get the right gamma to share B&W across platforms. This looks fine on my Mac but a bit light otherwise.... Adam - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
