But I was told by some photographer friends that it is best exposed at ASA 200. I plan to try it out on Saturday for some indoor shots of the Swedish prime minister, who is visiting Boras on Saturday. What will happen if I expose after 800 ASA or more likely 1600 ASA, as I will be using the Summicron 90? Kodak says this is fine, but is it true? Should I tell the lab to develop longer? Thanks for sharing your knowledge! /Hans >> What are good quality, fine-grained BW films that can be processed C-41? > >There are currently only two films that fit this category as far >as I am aware - Ilford XP-2 and Kodak Tmax 400CN.
