Take a couple of test shots, adjust your exposure, and away you go! Oh, you mean using filum? No reciprocity issues as you won't need that long an exposure, assuming that you're using reasonably fast film - don't forget you're shooting lights. Assuming you're using 400 iso film - or 800 - I don't think you're even going to need a tripod. Start shooting at maybe f2 at 1/60th, and go down from there. B. D.
