RE: [APML] Leonids Photos...



Daryn,
I shot a roll of E200 as well. I had them push 2 stops but I haven't
gotten the roll back from the lab yet. It should arrive today, I'll let
you know. I also shot at f2.8, but that was wide open for the 20mm lens
I was using.
I'm not expecting much considering the clouds at my location.

FWIW - I shot E200 with 50mm;f/1.8 @ 2.8. No exposures were longer than
30
seconds. Also had an IDAS filter on there (so near Silicon Valley, but
probably
did nothing considering the moon being so bright anyway. 
The pics seemed to come out nicely as far as stars and sky background,
but only
managed to capture one meteor, and it was dim. I distinctly remember
this one
being actually quite bright by the eye. 
Maybe should have pushed it one stop, maybe two, and set for f/1.8 not
f/2.8.
Any thoughts on this? 

Daryn
