Comments[edit]
I recently bought a beautiful GAF XL415 for just $.99. Yes that's 99 cents. Plus $14 for priority mail shipping. With the original instruction book all in mint condition. I'm hoping to figure out the whole EK64T filter deal so I can use the new reversal film.
Update: Other than putting an ND filter in the film gate, like any other camera that can't read EK64T, there's no real way to "properly" meter the new film stock. However, while shooting indoors I experimented with light levels and set the lighting so that the low light indicator in the view finder went out when pointed near, but not at a light source. It actually worked quite well! Could maybe have used 1/3 stop more light but otherwise excellent results. This little cam shot some nice pictures. I would bet that my same light trick will work well in cameras without manual controll or any type of f-stop indicator at least for indoor shooting where light levels are easily controlled.
