RE: help with indoor exposures needed

Hi Sarah

I'd say much the same as Chuck. Do some experimenting
and it's remarkably easy to begin to get consistent
indoor exposures, especialy if you stick to the same
camera and film combination for a while. After a
while, you'll just know the light. Using a Zero 2000,
for example, and T-Max 100 film, I have found that
about 2 seconds works in full sunlight, and anywhere
from 8-30 seconds in various depths of outdoor shadow
(and up to about 3 minutes as dark approaches).
Indoors, I find that a very brightly lit shop or
office (a whole ceiling of fluorescents, for example)
requires six to 12 minutes. A bright average interior
requires about 30 minutes at least, but my rule of
thumb indoor exposure for this camera/film combination
is 45 minutes unless the room is VERY brightly lit.
Give it a try. Remember, in low light situations,
chancing of under exposing are much greater than the
chances of overexposing. If in doubt, give it more
time. Hope that helps.

Colin
