RE: Filters for EIR

["Rolland Elliott" <rolland_elliott@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Exact Filter colors vary from manufacturers. B+W's Yellow #12 looks like 
Tiffen's Yellow #8, both give good results in my opinion. I find orange 
filters to be a little bit too strong, but others think they are better than 
the yellows. So you should probably try them both and decide for yourself. I 
set my ISO to 250 and just meter through the filter and bracket -1/2 on each 
frame.

Peace Rolland

>>>>I just received some Kodak EIR film (thank you, Rolland, for such quick
service), and I had a question about which filter to use. The only yellow
filter I have is a Hoya yellow K2, which I understand isn't deep enough for
EIR. I also have a Hoya orange (G). Neither of the filters have numbers on
them, so I'm assuming the yellow is a #8, and the orange is either a #16 or
#21.  Would this one be okay to use, until I can get a deeper yellow? And
what ISO should I set for starters (TTL metering with filter in place)?
