Just goes to show we all like different things.  I often like to use a #15
as it#'s more orange than the #12.  My experience has shown that this will
make the image much warmer in tone but still with the full range of colours
recoreded.  I do use a #12 as well when I don't want it quite so warm.

I also rate the film 200 asa with the #15, and 250asa with a #12 but bracket
aswell as due to the contrast you have a very small exposure window.

Hope this helps with ideas and just shows try diiferent things and see what
YOU like.

PS Jon, What do you rate the film at with a #9 filter? 320 or 400 ?
