Using ASA 200 film in a ASA 160 Camera
Hello. I have a newly developed addiction to Super 8 filming. I have a pretty basic camera, the Sankyo cm-300. I want to shoot black and white indoor and outdoor. My camera specifies the maximum ASA for type A film (tungsten) to be ASA 160. The only Blk. and Wht. film I can find is Kodak Tri-x, which is ASA 200. Kodak Plus-x is discontinued. Am I going to be able to use Tri-x ASA 200 in my ASA 160 camera? Anyone?

There just isn't much speed difference between 160 and 200, so I wouldn't worry about it.
If you want to you can get the 200 speed film "pulled" down to ISO/ASA 160 by a
competent processing house. If I were you, I'd just run a roll of the ISO 200
material through the camera to see what happens.
