    That's a tough call.

    If you don't mind testing one cartridge, do the following.

    Shoot the first half of the cartridge completely in the automatic exposure mode. It's important to half the shots with the sky in the shot, and half without the sky in the shot.

    On the second half of the cartridge, first see what the auto meter says, then adjust the image exactly one f-stop darker, or lighter, or do one of each.

    When you get the film back, evaluate which looked better overall, the automatically exposed footage, or the manually adjusted footage, and was it the footage that was overexposed one f-stop or underexpose one f-stop.

    Greetings,
    Has anybody had any luck with this film ? I am looking to buy some, but would like to hear from others about it first. I have two cameras, a Chinon 877, & a Chinon 12SMR. I know I will have trouble with the light meter, but would like to know how bad its going to be.

    <font size="2" face="verdana, sans-serif">Available everywhere, relatively cheap, and it has a definite "look." I personally don't like it much--overly grainy and at the same time it seems "dull" to me. But many think it is fantastic. Try it and tell us what you think.
