I am fairly new to shooting on film and have a couple questions/concerns. ANY help is very much appreciated.
I am shooting with a Bolex H16 Reflex camera on Kodak Tri-X Reversal 7266. I'm shooting indoors with some light coming from one window. I'd like to use work lights that are halogen which I own already because I cannot afford to buy or rent other lights. how much light will i actually need? Would it be best to use the light meter for incident or reflected?
On Kodak's product site for Tri-X Black and White Reversal 7266 film, it says that you should use Tungsten: 160, Daylight: 200 for the meter. Does this apply if I'm using halogen lights? What would I set the light meter to in regards to film speed?
