What make you think that? If you had a meter that would indicate exposure times at f/235 (assuming the Deluxe Z2000 you have is the multiformat model), under sunny conditions, you would get 1/2 sec using EI-400 with the meter aimed to a gray card. So your times are well within "theoretical range". When mentioning exposure times using an specific film, under certain light conditions, is necessary to also mention the f/stop of our camera, otherwise whatever exposure time we mention is of no use for anybody else's camera. I know you and Steve had stated to use Z2000 cameras but I also believe Steve said he has a 6x6 and you have the DeLuxe that, unless, I am mistaken, is the multiformat model. Those 2 models of Z2000 pinhole cameras do not have the same apertures. Guillermo
