Claus... it's not! :blink:

Now for printing, there are advantages to a pushed negative since it will print at higher printer light numbers than a thin negative and thus the blacks will be stronger.

Absolutely, and the test I shot was for Print, and from that, you could discern what you'd have at the DI phase... so I have no problem pushing one stop.

Just to continue this discussion, I would Push as it is easier to bring things down than up from an abyss. The Tests I shot for a Fotokem DP dinner revealed that a one stop push did no perceptible deterioration of the image with respect to Grain and Contrast. 1 1/2 and more... yes. We shot both 35mm and S16mm. It was at that point I abandoned anything faster than 200t when shooting S16 unless we really really want Grain. For Night Ext I prefer pushing 200t than shooting 500t for example. of course, there are times when you absolutely (have) to use (and push) 500 if need be......

It is true, on the other hand, it can be corrected (to a degree and differently) in DI.

It is not always a filter... it can be the (anamorphic) lens. Read This Thread

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Geez you are right.. I was too fast to reply... when shooting Film, you'd would have to go with your Spot Meter. I remember doing it that way the one time we incorporated black light.

Exactly... a photometrics chart is what you need.

You must have skimmed my posts. I never championed any art as fine art. In fact, I went on to say there's no such thing as fine art. My whole point was that the term is a bogus construction used by elitists to discredit artistic works.

I agree. When I think of fine.. I think of Fine Wine or Fine Dining.. meaning high end, high quality and expensive. Fine Art tho? That is subject to interpretation. A 20 x 40 foot canvas covered in a pastel pink wash is not 'Fine Art' in (my ) art book. really, 'Fine' can only be applied to Film when describing Grain.... or as a (personal) opinion like 'that actor or director did a fine job'.

Could you be any more vague.. two guys who are good at what?... huh?...

I think I recall you trolling with this wide eyed what the heck are you talking about idea before... no? :rolleyes:

I think the first questions will be Huh?... and How Much are you Paying?

Great posts Bruce and Keneu!

Thanks for the thread Andrzej... though I still feel like you owe me the eight minutes I spent watching 'Unwitnessed"! :lol:

(just kidding)

Great posts Bruce and Keneu!

Oooops this was supposed to be in the Fine Art thread :D

I don't think there is an actual scene to be filmed. I believe this is more like a puzzle for us to 'converse' :rolleyes:

I am in the dark on this one :lol:

Get Film Lighting and The Negative ;)

Converse?... what... are we here for (your) entertainment?

Shoot 100t (even for daylight) as it is Kodak's sharpest Stock. Overexpose everything 2/3s to 1 stop. Use Super Speed Lenses (use great glass) ;)
