Won't help the shadows because you won't have any. I think, and I have the fire extinguisher handy, that if you are using 100 speed film, you are far more likely to pull it off with a Hexar and an ND8x filter (based on sunny-16) than you would be with an M and an ND32x filter. ND32x would not be easy to find or be cheap. Also, would you be off the metering range with such a heavy filter on the camera? Now with the Hexar and that ND32, you could shoot 400-speed film in daylight at f/1.0! - ------------ Dante Stella On Thu, 7 Dec 2000, D Khong wrote: > Very slow film....pull processing....ND filters if necessary. > > Dan > > At 04:17 PM 6/12/00 -0500, you wrote: > >Alastair Firkin jotted down the following: > > > >> Figure out a way to shoot f/1 in blazing daylight. > > > >ND filters and slow film.
