Extended exposures

Hiya all.

Does anyone know where I can download an extended exposure chart I can print off to put in my camera bag.

I’m particularly interested in the times over 30 secs and reciprocity failure.

I will be taking exposures of over 30 mins.

Can anyone help?

Kevin.

There is no sigle chart. Each film has it`s own reciprocity failure. Check the tech data at Kodak: http://www.kodak.com/global/en/professi ... ndex.jhtml , Fuji: http://www.fujifilm.co.uk/film/film.html , and Ilford: http://www.ilfordphoto.com/products/pro ... onal+Films

One 'reciprocity failure' effect you might experience with LONG time is an increase in contrast on negative materials-it is the opposite to the effect of very SHORT times such as fast flash where the negatives need extra development to combat lower contrast.
