A note on exposure. Most slide film have + and - 3 stops around middle grey. Velvia has a little less in shadows, maybe a half stop. Provia has up to 3.7 stops in shadows and 3.3 in highlights. Each one varies a bit, so putting the most important factor of the photo (the sky, the skin tone) in the range yoy want it, sometimes you'll have to blow the sky or black out the shadows to get the most important part of the scene right.

I use both of those apps and find them very useful. I use the Viewfinder one a lot just to make sure the composition is good enough, before setting the camera up. The other tips are also good for most film use. Thanks for another worthwhile video.

Great video and great explanation! I don’t quite understand the exposure compensation part. Why would you compensate the exposure if you just metered for the shadows and the highlights and averaged it out? I’m guessing this is used for when metering only in one part of the scene, for example the shadows and compensating two stops?

Thanks. Slide film has a limited latitude. In some cases, adjustment of the exposure settings are required to recover shadows. But, the bright areas of the scene may require recovery with a graduated ND filter.

Great suggestions. I love shooting slide film. I’ve shot100’s of roles. I do meter a bit different by just metering a middle gray object with my spot meter and I have had great results with that approach. Of coarse I do take into consideration if there are very bright highlights and will sometimes make an adjustment.

When you say compensate for exposure? Does this mean changing the iso up? Or changing the aperture?

Shutter speed or aperture

Thanks for those tips. I was wondering about exposure compensation above a spot meter reading for highlights. I think Ben Horne also recommended up to 2 stops. Cheers

If you get the exposure right, there is nothing better than slide film, looking at it under a loupe is almost like a window to real life and not a picture. I have some Kodachrome slides fron my dad from the 80s and it's like time travel.

How do you oompensate your averaged meter reading (after you've averaged the highlights of the sky and the shadows) when you add a grad filter for the sky?
@StephenMilner

Generally, if I add 1 stop I use a 2 stop grad. If I add 2 stops I use a 3 stop filter.

With the Viewfinder App, take a photo (push the EV button) so you can capture a photo of the composition, date, ISO, focal length, SS and aperture. Can enter notes too.
