Thanks for all of the great replies, i will let you know how the provia 400x turned out and will also try push processing Nik Wed, 20 Jan 2010 00:09:15 GMT Linda Nygren http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/StereoRealist/message/1581 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/StereoRealist/message/1581 If you want to shoot at 400, another option is to use Provia 100 and expose it at 400, with "push" processing later by two stops.

Up until Provia 400X was released (Feb 2006) all other 400 speed films were WAY too grainy to view in a quality hand held viewer. Most people Tue, 19 Jan 2010 21:03:46 GMT sekharni http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/StereoRealist/message/1579 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/StereoRealist/message/1579 Thanks, for all of the replies, I do plan on using 100 speed film and flash primarily. I plan on experimenting with a roll of 400 film mainly as a curiosity.

A sunny day requires f22 and 1/200. A Realist f3.5 does not Tue, 19 Jan 2010 17:34:44 GMT bob_karambelas http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/StereoRealist/message/1577 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/StereoRealist/message/1577 I shot several rolls of an indoor scene recently, and tried some 400X so I could get more ambient light and less flash... generally, it can work well if you Mon, 18 Jan 2010 21:27:12 GMT Michael Kersenbrock http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/StereoRealist/message/1576 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/StereoRealist/message/1576 ... As much as I love Provia 100F, I was very disappointed with 400X, my use of it (in a RBTX3B) was quite grainy (IMO) compared to my expectations when it Mon, 18 Jan 2010 20:31:54 GMT Dan Mouer http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/StereoRealist/message/1575 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/StereoRealist/message/1575 I haven't used the 400X in a Realist, but it IS a very fine film with excellent latitude and very fine grain for its speed. I think you will fin d that it Mon, 18 Jan 2010 19:48:28 GMT sekharni http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/StereoRealist/message/1574 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/StereoRealist/message/1574 David, Thank you for that helpful reply. I look forward to using the film and I did order some 120 as well. I plan on ordering the TL-120 at the end of the Mon, 18 Jan 2010 17:45:31 GMT David Kesner http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/StereoRealist/message/1573 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/StereoRealist/message/1573 Hello Nik, ... Not in a Realist, but in both an RBTX3A (35mm format) and a TL120 (medium format). It is a really nice film and the grain is only noticeable in Mon, 18 Jan 2010 16:11:36 GMT sekharni http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/StereoRealist/message/1572 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/StereoRealist/message/1572 Jed thanks for your quick reply. I have used the realist on a tripod at f5.6 most recently for shots of the christmas tree at 1 second exposures, it was Mon, 18 Jan 2010 15:11:01 GMT Jed Skillman http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/StereoRealist/message/1571 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/StereoRealist/message/1571 I've never even tried 400ASA slide film. The higher the speed the more grain is visible. If you can, use a tripod and 100 speed film. Adjust your exposure Mon, 18 Jan 2010 15:01:17 GMT sekharni http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/StereoRealist/message/1570 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/StereoRealist/message/1570 Has anyone used this film for indoor shots witthout flash in their realist? I just ordered a roll from b and h and am looking forward to trying it out. I had
