Dear All
Hello from Blighty London and have I got a problem - got my first commercial commission tomorrow morning at 9am to shoot a football stadium in less than an hour on medium format??!!!***>>>>....
I usually shoot on 5x4 and take hours so I'm feeling v insecure and don't really know my way around a medium format - as if that wasn't enough - I seem to have forgotten everything I know down the loo!
So here it is - I shoot an 100 ASA polaroid and want to use 400 tranny film. I therefore stop down 2 f stops for the 400 film - right so far?! ....but then I know the weather's going to be ****, the sky grey, the stadium grey, silver and white so no blacks? - can I then re-rate the film for 800, keep the f stop the same and push process the film by 1 stop to get higher contrast??!!!! .....or should I just go find a small dark space and not come out for a few days?
Many thanks in anticipation
