Hello again
Seeing as I've had such blazing success by posting questions here, I'm gonna try my luck again!
I'm confused by the ASA\ISO rating. I always buy 'Manufacturer, ISO 100', or 200, 300, whatever. However, over at 7dayshjop.com all the Fuji film (not every item, but most, especially the 100, 200 speeds) are 'ASA' film.
I've got myself confused by all the explnations on the net. Some people say 'they are the same (http://www.photographers.co.uk/html/photographers-forum-1.cfm?ForumNumber=395&Title=ASA/ISO%20film%20speed) but I think they mean the speed ratings are the same, not that you can use ASA film as ISO film? Is that wrong?
In other words, my question is if I want to use 'standard' 35mm print film (not slide film) that I can send of to the developers and receive back as little 6x4 prints that I can put in my photo album, does it make any difference if I buy ASA film?
Thanks
Ted
