edwardchen Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 <p>As the title suggests, according to your experience, what is your most favorite color slide films ISO 200 for studio shoots: modeling, glamour, portrait, etc?<br> I prefer ISO 200 slides because I can easily match the aperture-shutter speed setting with my DSLR's lowest ISO.<br> Please advise. Thanks a bunch!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicholas_rapak Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 <p>There are only two 200-speed slide films available, and they are very similar to each other: Kodak's Elite Chrome 200 and Ektachrome E200. For your purpose, I would recommend E200, as you can get many rolls from a single batch to ensure consistency. <br> <p>However, you would have a much greater range of films if you go down to ISO 100. All you would need to do is open up the lens one stop or slow down the shutter one stop.</p> </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike_earussi1 Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 <p>You're really short changing yourself by not shooting a 100 speed slide film as they are far superior to any 200 speed film. If you have plenty of light why not do so? For instance, Astia is the best film ever made for people.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stwrtertbsratbs5 Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 <p>Slap a 0.3 ND filter on your DSLR and you can effectively shoot it at ISO 100.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrick_mont Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 <p>Both E200 and Elite Chrome 200 are superb films!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rustys pics Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 <p>Fuji Astia 100F has been a standard for flesh tones. The color is really subtle and gorgeous.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

john_shriver Posted January 4, 2010 Share Posted January 4, 2010 <p>E100G is designed for accurate color, with a little extra saturation, when exposed by studio strobes.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
