I shot this sculpture w/ P67 today. I was unsure about how to meter it. I didnt want to fuss with my spotmeter so I backed up a little and took an average reading with my gossen multipro in the reflected mode. Hit the exposure dead on! Dont recall what stting I used, but it worked.
http://www.gate.net/~hifisapi/sculpture1.jpg I've fine tuned my TMAX 400 as far as ISO (250) and development and I L O V E this film for black and white on the P67. It's a little too grainy for 35mm but it really shines on 6X7. I really appreciate the extra speed over TMAX 100 which I usually expose at ISO 80. I think from now on I will use the 400 for 6X7 and 100 for 35mm. This brings up the question : Why use any film slower than ISO 400 with the P67 if the grain is invisible to the naked eye???? I can see trying to reduce the grain with 35mm , but with P67 whats the point??? JCO - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
