What Film for Holga and Gigg?

    My Holga just arrived…. Yay!!
    What film do most of you use, I might take it out with me tonight (Blues Festival)
    Dark pubs, low light… is 3200 a bit much?

    What do you think?

    Try some Ilford Pan F Plus, I usually load that when I go out at night. ;)

    Now seriously, I would use ilford delta 3200, rated at 1600 or 3200.

    Something like Neopan 1600 or Ilford HP5 400 pushed 2 or 3 stops would be what i would try. I’m no expert. Delta 3200 is great, but might fog even more than normal in a holga but I might be incorrect. Id try the delta 3200 though it might be a very good option. A Holga shoots at around f8 at 100th of a sec which is a bit slow….

    Would be interesting seeing gig shots from a holga make sure you post some would be interested as to how they would turn out

    Thanks Martin and Randomway… I didn’t use it at any of the indoor gigs, I did
    take a few in the park on sunday though. I used a roll of Tri-X 400
    processed the film y’day and made 1 print (a picture of Jess, of course :roll: ),
    gonna get them scanned tomorrow… I love the fisheye… so cool.

    Sorry for not replying sooner……. Had a very, very good w’end
