[APML] Film for piggyback.



I searched the archives and found no conclusive answer. Is Supra any good. Reading through the archives I saw that Tony was not fond of it. Right now--to get started, I really need to stick with prints.
 
I have an older SRT101 from Minolta. I am going to "try" piggyback wide-field. I am encouraged by the beautiful results of others. Of course it is also less demanding--guiding wise.
 
Which color negative film is best for 5-15 minute exposures, with a fairly dark country sky. I spoke with the operator of our local 1 hour lab today. We talked for a while about the types of shots I would be bringing in to have processed. They have agreed to work with me. I know its not the best place to take astro film--but for a start I believe it will do.
 
Anyway, if anyone can offer suggestions as to what works and more importantly--what works now, I would be grateful.
 
Thanks,
 
Donnie
