I think what’s missing is that while it’s good rule of thumb to over expose since it’s more forgiving when you mess up metering. It’s important to learn how to meter correctly because then you will actually know if you loose details in the shadows or not. Then you will have an even greater dynamic range if you find that sweetspot. Internal lightmeters just don’t know where in the scene the detail is you are interested in. They just expose whatever is in the center of the frame for middle gray depending on the lightmeter of course. So shooting a bright sky in the background with the subject to the left, of course the image will be underexposed for your subject because the lightmeter just measures the sky in the center.

If you're shooting manual you can just expose at 1 stop over (or whatever) as seen by the meter needle or readout. Thus giving you the ability to adjust exposure per frame without having to change film speeds. If you develop your own film you can play with pushing/pulling, temperature and dilution to play around with shadows and highlights. It's all good fun!

Remember, film works on chemical processes, not a digital sensor. It cares a lot less about exact exposure settings and it also sort of RESISTS highlight blowout the longer you expose it (exposure reciprocity) because of it's chemical nature

hi i have question if I shoot portra 400 at 200 iso in my light meter what iso I put 200 or 400 ? thanks you (:
@wishyouwerehere41
Ай бұрын
Short answer is 200. Why? If you are shooting Portra 400 film but want to rate it at ISO 200, you should set your light meter to ISO 200. This way, you will overexpose the film by one stop, Cause The ISO setting on your film camera ONLY job is to tell the camera's light meter what ISO film you are using. Nothing else.

Another useful tip is two overexpose two stops for night photography. The images come out looking clean, and you avoid the dreaded green cast in the shadows. Given that night photography has a lot of shadows, it benefits the most by overexposing by two stops. Yes, you will need a tripod, but lugging around a tripod is better than having thin negatives that look like sh*t.

Hi, I was given some expired Kodak Gold 400, exp 2007, and got back a very dark "blank" roll from the camera shop. I've checked my camera, Canon A1, 50mm 1.8 FD lens, UV filter L37, for function and metering and all tested good. It at first appears black but what I see is when I hold up the film to light at arms length, there is a complete roll of very faint but clear images very dark. I compensated my ASA from 400 to 325 for the age expiration of the film. I thought at first the film had been accidentally exposed to light and was re-rolled into the canister but not likely since there are faint images. My other thought is the film was exposed to heat since I live in the desert of Nevada. What else would you think it could be as I have three more expired rolls I want to experiment with? Thanks in advance.

Been doing this for years while shooting film. I always metered and exposed at half of the rated ISO/ASA rating of the film emulsion. It was standard practice to produce a denser negative to open shadows but not completely blowout highlights. Interesting to see new photographers discovering these techniques decades later.

But if you meter for half the ISO, won't it tell you different settings for both the aperture and shutter speed....thus overexposing by more then 1 stop.
@Macjohn1419

@@noscaasifilmstudios, the camera will give the proper exposure setting for the half ISO value you set. You will have a denser negative with more open shadows and the film latitude will hold your highlights. Professional photographers have been doing this for years. Like in digital photography, you would expose to the right of the histogram. Same principle.

This is not a tool. That's just bullshit for the mentally weak. This is a technique to guard against your inability to properly meter or otherwise determine a proper exposure. It's in the nature of "better too much than too little exposure". What you are doing here is killing the dynamic range of your film a bit, in effect loosing highlight detail at the top end of the exposure (if any of course) in order to raise shadow detail which might be lost if you accidentally under expose.

Hi, iv had issue with Minolta Hi Matic E rangefinder. One roll of c41 came out (home processing) with over half of roll clear no edge markings…. Another roll came out blank but with edge markings…. But… both rolls had images. 7/24 & 17/36 were perfect 🤷🏼♂️
@artsyaidan
Жыл бұрын
Interesting - if you had a roll come out with images but not with edge markings, it would have to be a stock that doesn't put rebate markings on there. Many bulk roll, cine film or custom-cut films from smaller manufacturers omit the edge markings as these smaller companies don't have the equipment to expose them on during production. As for skipped frames on a roll where some worked and some did not, this would be a camera problem. Perhaps the settings were too dark or the shutter was not firing on certain speeds, etc.

With push/pull you overexpose/underexpose while shooting but you compensate it with longer or shorter development time. With overexposing/underexposing you just shoot the picture with more or less light and just develop it as it is. Sorry for the late reply.

I am an older photographer, so I have been using film since 1969. What you say is true for color negative films. I first experienced this in 1975 when I was shooting a food shot for my portfolio. I had a professional lab process the 4x5" color negative film and contact print it. I sent them back the correct exposed negative. They gave me a phone call, they said they remember my negatives they told me to send the darker negative in. I had done a bracket of one stop over and one stop under, and one at normal exposure. I told them it is overexposed, but they said it will give you more detail and is easier to print. Another time when I was assisting a wedding photographer, he told me he always overexposes VPS one stop over. He told me I should do the same, it gives a better printable negative. Sometimes underexposing color transparency films 1/2 stop can give you more color saturation, so bracket. I once had an industrial photographer tell me that professionals bracket amateurs do not. I don't think I would want to try this with black-and-white film. Increasing development and decreasing development controls contrast with black-and-white. Today I prefer the quality of digital.

Hi Aidan, thank you for your overview and sharing your experience. Here are my 2 cents: 1/mistakenly overexposed negative films are usable. However I like the deep shadows as black for me is the soul of the picture. Further, I do not post process scans of negatives but I do all original digital files- this is how it evolved. 2/Slide film is very sensitive, so my experience is in line with yours. 3/ Said that, we arrived to a personal taste whether you like richly detailed shawows. 4/Finally a gentle question: if your suggestion were a good general approach, why do you think the film manufacturers do not rate films that way? Comment: I do not consider myself as a specialist in the field but have had experiece. Brgs, István
@artsyaidan

Hi! Yes absolutely, shadow detail is a matter of personal taste. Some people like the thinner "film look", some like a denser detailed look. To answer your question 4, fresh films are perfectly rated by their manufacturers at their box speeds. Manufacturers rate these as such to get the best performance out of the film while yielding most useful film speeds to allow for flexibility in shutter speeds/apertures. My suggestion to forgo this recommended speed and overexpose is because for most print films, there is no harm to the color and highlights and (if you have the light to spare anyways) in exchange you get more shadow detail and (especially for beginners) protection against underexposure.

The mistake you’re making is that you think you’re getting deep shadows with underexposed film when in reality you don’t. Thin negatives means will have no information in the shadows. The scanner is essentially adding grain to those areas, and that’s about it. There is nothing there to recover. In contrast, if you overexpose, you can still bring the shadows down later. And if for some odd reason you don’t like to “edit your photos”, you can always ask the lab to crush the shadows for you and they’ll happily do it for you. Now remember, even if you don’t personally edit your film, your lab certainly does. The fallacy of unedited film photos is just that, a fallacy. Any conversion is by definition an interpretation, and that conversion requires editing to achieve the final image.
