This one is very good. Tracking the bike while making the shot gives a great sensation of movement.

Not all that easy to do with the big ass fuji and the giant flash on top
I was close to my center of gravity tipping over

Many thanks mathomas, I think that was a bit of luck and a great latitude of Ilford XP2 dit a great job![]()
I just bought 7 rolls of the stuff in 120 for a couple of trips I have planned. Looking forward to shooting it. Did you have your lab do it, or did you cross-process at home? Those scans look really good.

Love the last shot. Is there some kind of relation between the film size and metering? I mean if you use a 35mm camera for it's light meter and it give you f4.5 and 1/60 is that valid for 6x9 as well?

Yes, it's the same. It's all math. It's a bit complicated and I know what you're thinking, but I can't find the relevant article on wikipedia right now.

The advantage of a 1º spot meter is I can meter the darkest and brightest spots in a picture, and then choose an exposure that will best capture the full range, not just a weighted average.
I spotmeter all of my landscape shots, and others when I can. I always get good exposures when I do. The same applies no matter what film size you use.

You're completely missing the point of his question. He is asking is exposure relative to sensor(film) size. Spot metering is for the birds.

Divewizard, although I am not a fan of spot metering or the zone method your results speak for themselves. You have posted a ton of great shots in this thread.
I finally have a shot or two to post after dusting my 6X9's off:

Those are nice. Did you use a tripod?

Is Kodak Ultra Color still made? I just saw a small note on this film on Steve Huff's site and it looked intriguing but I can't see it for sale anywhere.
