Are you using the new E-6 color slide film?  I shot one roll of it on
vacation in Orlando, Florida, USA, a couple weeks ago and it looks great!

One of our PPANJ officers who got advance samples of this film gave me a
roll.  He had trouble with overexposed slides at IE200, so he advised me to
rate the film at IE400.  I used a Minolta XG-1 with a Cokin yellow filter
(#001) and Cokin circular polarizer (#160).  I put the camera in
autoexposure mode (aperature priority) and let it meter through the filters.
In the shade, I put the exposure compensation dial to -1.

No, just focus normally.

I haven't used the film at night, or with a flash.  And I loaded and
unloaded the camera in a darkened room (windowless bathroom) in my hotel.

P.S.--if anyone needs to know the stock numbers/colors of the various Cokin
filters, B&H has the list posted on their home page: www.bhphotovideo.com.
