  1. That is very helpful. I now have a better understanding of the nature of this film. I'm also thinking more about the colors present in the scene. Avoiding red lipstick etc. However, I'm still not sure what to rate the film if I'm shooting under Tungsten film and exposing for skin tones... I'll probably test it first but I'd love to hear a specific number from people. BTW. I'm pretty new to this site and I can't believe what a wonderful resource it is! And very well organized - J. Pytlak is some kind of guardian angel.
  2. Hello all, I have occasionally shot 16mm hi-con ( 7363 ) in daylight and rated the film around ASA 25. The results are so beautiful and I've always wanted to shoot some interior stuff with it (which will require a lot of light) the problwm with this film, as you know, is it is very unforgiving in terms of latitude (there isn't any) I know it behaves differently in sunlight as opposed to Tungsten. QUESTION: what should I rate 7263 at when shooting under tungsten? thanks in advance...
  3. Here's my situation: shooting a no-budget 35mm short. One shot, camera never moves. Shot is 3 min. long. Lens is 18mm. Two speaking actors, both are 20 feet away and somewhat small in the frame. I have access to a FREE 35mm Mitchell (I'm assuming non-synch) or even a FREE ArriBL4 Question: How loud are these things? Also, would anyone risk audio recording a few dozen rehearsals and then using that sound (after a lot of editing and massaging)? Of course, we'd also record the camera takes but the sound might be unusable due to camera noise, and not stay in synch anyway. I have a lot of sound editing experience and think I can put the sound back together but... what a headache! So, would YOU risk it? Also: we'd be shooting another part of the movie on a newer camera, maybe Panavision. Am I wrong thinking that Mitchell cameras were famous for rock-steady images?
