Re: Some basics Please (Part II)

["Gary" <misman@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Well I was planing to go out and try and get some shots this weekend I hope
that the forcast stays true and that it will be sunny all weekend. After all
the advice that I got from the IR list this week I still have a problem with
why I got all black picts on my film as I recall one person (I don't recall)
said that they have shot pict's at 1/500 @ f/16 and have some really good picts
and I was shooting at 1/125 @ f/11. Go figure maybe my lab screwed them up (Any
clues here?) and didn't want to take the blame, Ahhh well I'm just a newbie at
IR so I will just have to experiment a little. One other thing. Should I maybe
take about 10 or 12 pict's in a row of the same setting all at different
shutter speeds and apertures and then see which ones come out and go from
there? I will do this anyway using my primary lens that I want to take IR picts
with but being that the film is about $10 USDollars a roll out here I would
like to try and avoid to many of these situtations.

Thanks once again.

Gary
