Wrong lens, wrong film and a surprising result

    Don't you love it when you get an unexpected good result.

    I've just projected some slides from an airshow a few weeks back.
    I had Velvia 50 in the camera plus a zoom at the 90mm end, I was just
    using up some film so I could put in a faster film and a 500mm mirror
    lens.

    What surprised me was just how bright and good the shots were on Velvia,
    with the polariser I must have been using an equivalent of 25ASA for
    action shots. I mostly took pictures of aerobatic teams such as
    the red arrows. The pictures have a real '3d' feel.

    Unfortunately this really showed up the shots with 800ASA print film
    and the mirror lens, they were closer up but dull.

    Can't have everything,

    Pete
