Re: Linhof 6x17 filter question

["rof@xxxxxxx" <rof@xxxxxxx>]

as the manufacurer of 612 shift cameras i have found the centerfilters very
a great deal no matter what the annouonced factor is.  Probably 3x (1 1/2
stops) is a good starting point. if you are shooting transparencies you do
not want to overexpose of course, on contrary with color negs i expose for
the far corners if i want an even result which i get by printing in the
center w/o image damage. to deterning the filter factor I take a good spot
meter 1 degree best, read the center and then the clear edge holding filter
in same position with a light wall as background.ralph
