Velvia 100F
Does anyone use Velvia 100F with a different ISO setting than the one given
by the producer ? Some people use Sensia 100 with a 125 ISO setting claiming it is the proper one as the curve shows; similarily some use 125 or even 160 ISO setting for Provia 100 F. I just wanted to ask if someone has any experience of this sort with Velvia 100F. I'm using Nikon F80, haven't used velvia 100f before, going on holidays, don't want to spoil my pictures. thanks for suggestions |

When I shoot important stuff I bracket. It really depends on too many factors like your metering technique and other issues to give a patent answer. -- LF Website @ http://members.verizon.net/~gregoryblank "To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public."--Theodore Roosevelt, May 7, 1918 |

It's usually not a good idea to go on a trip using a film that you haven't used before. It's always better to test a new film at home. - Peter |
