Can anyone confirm how to expose this new film, I have just recieved two carts, am I correct in thinking you set the camera to artificial light, also do you need any filters with it, thanks.
FWIW, the only time I use a UV filter is if it's raining or I'm at the beach and the wind is blowing sand around. Should add that I only shoot b&w film...
I almost always shoot with a Skylight. Protects the lens and shouldn't affect the image much....if it does anything it might produce a slightly better sky.
Got Skylights for virtually all my cameras and lenses...have been in the habit since I was around 9 years old.
The government says that by 2010 30% of us will be fat....I am merely a trendsetter

pretty much.
When shooting film, take it off!
huh? why? you just said that it was useful to protect your lens? or do you mean that you use it instead of a lens cap? that sounds like a rather strange solution, but to each his own. ;-)
I saw a projection of GK's cinevia-test film:
Most of the shots have made with the camera set to uncorrected, automatic exposure for a 40ASA-film. And there was nearly no difference between the "properly" exposed sections (fully manual exposure or corrected auto-exposure) and the ones made for 40 ASA.
There's absolutely no difference between light metering for 40 or 50 ASA (difference 1 DIN). So: shoot with auto-metering, without external filters (unless you use skylight or UV ), switch set on "little light bulb". Good luck!
