Tmax 3200

[nealjpage]

I went to the local Photo-hut place today to drop off some E-6 and they were having a blow-out on film. i bought a few rolls of Tmax 100, five rolls of Ektachrome tungston (i have no idea what to use those for) and 4 rolls of Tmax 3200. What should I use that for??? I couldn't not buy them; they were $3 a roll!

low light photography i guess, sounds like a rather high speed film!

the Ektachrome tungson film is for making slides indoors under tungsen light. If you use it outside with out the proper filter your images will shift color temperature, strong blue cast.

the 3200 film is for low light conditions, try an EI of 1200 to 800 for the best results, altho, you really need to test your equipment to discover what is the best working EI for you.

Tmax 3200p (don't forget the little "p" Kodak sticks on the end) is really Tmax 800. Kodak says it goes up to ISO 1000 if you use Tmax developer. All speeds higher than that are a push (little "p" for "push").
