OK; I'm about ready for EIR :)

[bcasselb@xxxxxxxxxxx (Bill D. Casselberry)]

  Hi all,

	Just a final round of probing on tips for the Kodak
	EIR slide film. I have procured an 82mm #15 yellow
	filter and a 77mm-82mm step-up ring. This will allow
	me to use my 300mm f4, a 24mm f3.5, & a (hopefully
	w/o vignetting) a 20mm f4.5   I may try just holding
	it in front of my 17mm f4, too -- just for fun :)  As
	well I have a 49mm #15 yellow for many other of my 
	lenses. I also have a 77mm polarizer which will fit in
	behind the #15 in the wide-angle hood from the 20mm.
	Have also a 49mm polarizer. 

	anyway ... I was just over at Spearmint's (Gavin ?)
	page to check on exposure. I found that he metered @
	250 w/ just a #12 yellow and used that. So, any voice
	of experience on a good startoff exposure using the
	#15/plz combo ??  I intend to wait for a good sunny IR-packed
	day for this venture.

	I'll most likely try some w/ green & orange filtration
	too, as I have those filters. The 17mm f4 fisheye (an old
	m42 mount Takumar) has a built-in k2 yellow, UV, & an
	orange. I'm unfamiliar w/ the notation on the orange,
	though -- 056(O2) ... my other orange is designated "G"

					anyway, it'll be fun  :)

  btw; there are now 6 Fisheye shots on my site in a section
	easily accessible from the opening page.

				any info appreciated ...   Bill
