Holga and ISO

DadaKopf · 2008-08-02 18:01:53

It's been a long time since I've shot with my Holga. I bought a rake of 100 and 160 ISO films, but I can't remember now if that'll actually be too low. I'll be on holidays and expect to be shooting in sunlight. Any ideas?

I was using a lot of 400 and in forests and the likes it was too slow - but in the street in sunshine it was ok to the point of possible overexposure - although you can get tons out of what looks like a blank neg if you have the scanner for it. In sunnier climes and open scenes i think you'll get away with the 100/160 though.

I'll probably be just developing them and scanning to CD. Will that get me some latitude in giving the photos an 'edge' in sub-optimal light situations?
