Close ups are with a 90mm tele-elmarit, and wides are with a summicron 35. I took a reading with the 90, and winged it after that. http://www.sonc.com/cottonpatch/ Regards, SonC - ----- Original Message ----- From: "ternahan" <ternahan@sonic.net> To: <leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us> Sent: Thursday, September 06, 2001 3:59 PM Subject: Re: [Leica] Photographing stage performances--help! > Also Fuji makes a decent 800 color film. > trish > ternahan@gentlelens.net > > > > From: "Joe Codispoti" <joecodi@charter.net> > > Reply-To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us > > Date: Thu, 6 Sep 2001 11:30:34 -0700 > > To: <leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us> > > Subject: Re: [Leica] Photographing stage performances--help! > > > > Terry, > > > > Having some experience in this area, I recommend several rolls of EK Portra. > > Also, I would recommend that you enjoy the play.
