RE: OK; I'm about ready for EIR :)

[Theo Benson <TBenson@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Bill,
I use a #15 with EIR, and have found that exposures made from ISO 200 to ISO
250 seem to give the best results.  I have even found that exposures made of
the same scenes at both ISO's are pleasing -- each have their own
personalities.

Good luck!
