Re: [APML] Another Hydrogen Alpha sensitive color film to consider...

[Stuart Heggie <stuart.j.heggie@sympatico.ca>]

I'm hardly the expert but coincidently played with the Supra 800 for awhile and
found, as I indicated in an earlier post, that it was great in short exposure on
aurora but for anything over a minute I got intense green shift in the colour
balance and I think Bert's more sophisticated assessment bears that out. It was
also too grainy.

Don't forget the aurora though!
