ND Filters for old cameras


Recommended Posts

I'm shooting with two old 8mm cameras, a Keystone K25 and a Bolex B8.  Both have shutter speeds of 1/30 and I'm shooting with Fomapan R100.  I live in Las Vegas where the sun is always blazing so, even with the aperture stopped down all the way to F/22, I'm likely to greatly over-expose.  To compensate for this, I'm crafting an ND8 (3-stop) filter for the cameras and hope this will allow me to shoot in bright daylight.  Has anyone tried something similar or foresee any potential problems?  Thanks, Eric
