Long Exposures with Velvia 50

Dikaiosune01 · May 24, 2011

What kind of colour correction filters do i need?
How much exposure compensation do i need?
I know the data sheets do not suggest anything longer than 30 seconds, i want longer, like 4 minutes.

Best way to know is the test it with long exposures and various filter combinations.

Begin with what is listed for 30-seconds, and then extrapolate.

Never had a problem with exposures up to four minutes... you might get a slight colour shift (above and beyond the normal velvia shift) but it's best to test.

I wouldn't bother with anything unless you have seen problems with your particular work.

It's suggested that a magenta cc filter is used but with velvia already slightly magenta, this seems like a recipe for disaster

But at four minutes (for example) what kind of exposure compensation did you need?
