Hi all,
I just wanted to get some opinions on a panoramic camera that was given to me recently. It says to use 200 speed film ONLY, and I realize this is because it has a fixed shutter speed(?) and aperture (it's fixed-focus).... I'm not expecting amazing results, but it should be fun to play with.
Now, it doesn't have a flash. I want to be able to do some low light / indoors stuff with it as well (I'll make sure there's plenty of electrical light available when I do this). I'm assuming that the 'consumer' films these days (eg. Fuji Superia, Kodak Gold etc.) at around the ISO 400 speed range have a pretty wide exposure latitude, based on past experience and what I've read. Do you think it'd be worth it to try a roll of 400 and see how it goes, just for the extra speed? (I don't want to pay to get them developed and have a stack of white & grey postcards). Or even ISO 800?
Also, should I ask them to pull the film? It's going to be overexposed obviously, but will one stop of overexposure make much difference with these films?
Thanks in advance
