Wrong film in AE-1

....so suppose I shoot FujiColor Pro 160, should I do a couple frames at 80 ASA? Kodak Portra 400vc @ 200? I didn't know that, damn I'll have to get a couple rolls this weekend and try that. :thumbup: I've always shot the rated ISO, this sounds like a neat little trick. It's a shame my Maxxum 4 doesn't have an ISO override (or if it does I haven't figured it out yet)
Not sure about the Maxxum 4, but even if you can't manually set the ISO (you should be able to...), you can do the same thing by just overexposing 1 stop or so. Or use exposure compensation.


I use a lot of Fuji Pro 160 (usually 'S'). It's not too bad at 160, but sometimes I like it better at 80 or 100.

You can set ISO manually on a Maxxum 4.

See the owners manual here.

It's under "Setting the ISO Manually" on page 84 of the manual.
