Hello All!
I could use some help here. We just got a wonderful spring time
snowfall yesterday (10") and it got me out and about with my 8x10
pinhole camera (due to the extra light reflection of the snow). I tried
using Polaroid type 804 ASA 100 (first time using this film) and I can't
seem to get the exposures correct. The prints keep coming out real
light. Now, I could keep adjusting the time exposures but it is
expensive film and I really don't want to use the whole box of film as
testing material (that is, if I can help it).
The camera is a normal focal length (13 inches) Leonardo 8x10 and the
pinhole is F 500. Anyone out there do 8x10 pinhole Polaroids? For some
reason the time charts I use for Ilford HP5 aren't working. And yes, I
calculate for the difference in the film speeds. Any help would be
appreciated.
Oh, by the way, I let the Polaroid film warm up before processing it,
and it is fresh film.
Thank you in advance!
