What make you think that?
If you had a meter that would indicate exposure times at f/235 (assuming the
Deluxe Z2000 you have is the multiformat model), under sunny conditions, you
would get 1/2 sec using EI-400 with the meter aimed to a gray card. So your
times are well within "theoretical range".
When mentioning exposure times using an specific film, under certain light
conditions, is necessary to also mention the f/stop of our camera, otherwise
whatever exposure time we mention is of no use for anybody else's camera. I
know you and Steve had stated to use Z2000 cameras but I also believe Steve
said he has a 6x6 and you have the DeLuxe that, unless, I am mistaken, is
the multiformat model. Those 2 models of Z2000 pinhole cameras do not have
the same apertures.
