Hi,
I recently bought an old large format field camera that came with a lens
which is so old it has shutter speeds that don't correspond with my
light meter; it has 5th, 10th, 25th, 50th, 100th, 200th, instead of the
normal shutter speeds (8th, 15th, 30th, 60th etc.)
So my problem is trying to work out what the correct exposure should
be...working from my meter. I'm shooting colour negative, so I'm
guessing it can take a bit of latitude either way, but can't quite work
out if I should go with an exposure that is slightly over, or slightly
under what the meter says. For example, if my meter reading is F8/125th,
should I shoot at F8/100th, or F8/200th?
Any input appreciated.
Cheers,
Jonathan.
