The Sixth Sens(ia), Choosing the right film
by bendor | Jan 19 '00
Ever wonder how those spectacular calendar scenics look the way they do? Sure it has a lot to do with the camera and the guy behind the camera. A big part of those scenes is actually in the film used. Both the film speed (ISO rating)and the manufacturer...Return to opinion

If I may ask, what does this recommendation on film have to do with the topic at hand, namely X-rays damaging film? Sorry, but I have to NR this review.

Good Review (Reply to this comment)
by gsrunyan
I have shot Fujichrome 50 for years because of the deep rich colors but I don't think they make it anymore.
Good tip on the IE. For the amateur, it's probably easier for them to understand if you tell them to set their camera exposure 1/3 stop below the rating of the film (that's the dot below the ISO rating of their film on the speed selection dial).

Good review (Reply to this comment)

bendor, good review and nicely done. Point of fact, though, the term of exposing a film of particular ISO is called "indexing". So you would say you rate Fuji Velvia at an Exposure Index, IE, of 40. (Which is what I do when I shoot Velvia.) Indeed, an ISO NEVER changes. It is there by specification but your IE can be whatever you want. This review provides worthwhile information to folks shooting for high definition and low grain. Have fun shooting! Dave
