wogears Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 <p>I would use a skylight or very slight warming filter (81A). Shoot at box speed or 1/3 stop under. Make sure to meter so that the highlights are not blown. This was one of my favorite slide films, and one I seriously mourn. Enjoy.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin Smith Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 <p>I would use no filter (but I'm like that), but you will need to get your exposures correct: + or - 0.5 stop, or possibly + or - 2/3 stop (if you are lucky). I set it at box speed.</p> Robin Smith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob F. Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 <p>I was just starting to use and like Astia when they discontinued it. I wish they would bring it back! My exposures were fine shooting it at box speed. I used a UV filter and liked the result.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
