hi,
f*f/t=E*18%*S/K/PI
'f' is Av, 't' is exposure time in second, E is lux, K is a constant, equals 15.4 in
documents of Kodak.
So, if E=500lux, S=ASA100, then f*f/t=500*0.18*100/15.4/3.14159=186, equals 1/6s,F5.6

Just wanted to make sure you understood it to be a Pentax problem, not
a problem with all autowind cameras. At least the MZ-S has a function
where you can tell it to not rewind when a roll is complete. Then you
can wait or muffle the sound and then start the rewind process.

Lauder's Scotch Whiskey comes in green plastic 1/2 gallon bottles. And
it's priced at just twenty bucks for the half gallon. It's actually
quite good: tastes a lot like Dewars White Label. And the bottles are
great for darkroom chemicals. Of course, the accordian chemical bottles
that you can buy

If I was to print it myself I think I would cut
the saturation a bit, the film (Fujichrome ms 100/1000)
seems a little to saturated at ISO 100 which is what I shot
it at. Lack of grain and sharpness is excellent, which
is much better than 35mm
