Long time exposures

[venchka]

Evrica!
My problems regarding long time exposures seem to be solved. With my reading glasses on I could read my Gossen meter properly and it suggested me the exposuretime of 2 minutes.
Yes, my eyesight turned worse. So I have to wear my glasses in total darkness too.
Cheers, I ruching out for shooting!

A tiny LED flashlight (torch in the UK?) will aid in reading the meter and setting the camera aperture. you need to be able to read your timer for long exposures. You also need to increase exposure double, triple, whatever your film's reciprocity factor needs. Or use Acros and expose according to your meter.
I see that the published reciprocity graph for Ilford products stops at 35 seconds. Too bad.
