I would shoot a test at 24fps, 16fps and maybe some longer exposures if you
have the options on your camera, and the longest shutter speed available.
You only need to shoot a few seconds of each option. You could also shoot
a few feet, then break off the film and shoot a few feet again and push
I agree about shooting a test... but I suggest shooting a test at 1fps or
so... keep the shutter open as long as you can
Even wide open that may not be enough.

An incident light meter will not tell you much at all. It wont be possible
to get incident readings of the projected images, especially if they are
small dots (stars). In an ideal world you'd shoot a test. You might be
able to determine the level by shining a light on the wall that looks by
eye
Does it have to be in realtime? Light levels will be very very low,
but undercranking the camera might make it possible to record something.

on 16mm of a planetarium show. This is a typical astronomy based show, not

incident lighting, not spot. So of course my readings were really low to
