I'll be going to Thailand on Monday, then Hong Kong, then Taiwan for a full
month!! :-) What I am concerned is humidity. I had to get one of my
lenses cleaned when I was in taiwan last time, it just gummed up that badly
and the blades wouldn't reopen. There's quite a few vets on this list, and
so I was wondering if you could give me some hints on what I can do to
minimize humidity related problems.
#2, Thailand is the land of gold. The temples, the women etc.. high in
heavy contract colors. Any suggestions on film use? I usually shoot
Superia 400, because the color saturation is good, but people turn out a bit
less accurate on skin tones. But is this a good choice? Should I move to
200 speed film instead? 100 speed? I'll be shooting mostly outdoor shots I
think, but I am not completely sure. I find the superia 400 to be fine
grained already, finer than the Kodak Gold 200's, but the extra stop helps.
But I'm wondering if there's a film that is as highly versatile that I'm not
using...
Thanks.
Albert
