When I was using the MP I shot Pan-F at 32 ASA so the 1,000 top speed was OK. I also liked a #25 back then which cuts a lot of light. -rei Ridgewood, NJ via iPhone On Feb 9, 2012, at 11:35 PM, John McMaster <john at mcmaster.co.nz> wrote: > Most of my Noctilux shots are with a 3 stop ND, even then I may have to > stop down at times... > > John > > On 10/02/2012, at 5:31 PM, "Robert Adler" <rgacpa at gmail.com> wrote: > >> Ever use a ND filter on it to shoot wide open in daylight?
