[Leica] Overexposed Neopan 400 question

[benedenia at gmail.com (Marty Deveney)]

Reduced development, particularly if he is going to scan them, is the
way to go.  The contrast will be incredibly high with normal
development and the negs will be very thick.

I accidentally exposed a roll of Neopan 400 at 50 last year and with
very short development it came out fine.
