4. EXPOSURE UNDER VARIOUS LIGHT

CONDITIONS

Daylight

Even when exposed under morning or evening twilight conditions or when color temperatures are low, no special filter use is needed as color balancing can be done during printing.

Electronic Flash

• Electronic flash produces light similar to daylight, so filters are not needed. However, the possibility of undesirable effects on color balance, due to various factors (differences in equipment, amount of use, etc.) should be taken into consideration. Test exposures are recommended.

• If shutter speeds slower than 1/125 second are used, light from non-flash sources, such as room lighting, may cause color imbalances. Make test exposures.

• The use of a flash meter is advisable, but the following formula can also be used to obtain satisfactory lens opening.

• Set the film speed at ISO 1600. Since the amount of light reflected onto subjects from surrounding surfaces will differ with the conditions, refer to the flash unit instructions.

* Fuji Color Compensating Filters (or Wratten Color Compensating Filters)

** Exposure correction values include filter exposure factors.

These values are added to unfiltered exposure meter readings. A “+” followed by a number indicates the required increase in lens opening.

• When the fluorescent lamp characteristics are unknown, to obtain generally acceptable results, use a

30M compensating filter and open the lens one stop

(+1).

NOTE Different compensation may be required according to special lamp types and length of use, so test exposures are recommended, whenever possible.

• Shutter speeds of 1/125 second for high-intensity discharge lamps and 1/30 second or larger, for fluorescent lamps, will avoid AC power-induced changes in brightness and color being recorded on the film.

Tungsten Lamps

A Fuji Light Balancing Filter LBB-12 (or Wratten filter

No.80A) is recommended along with a 2-stop increase in lens opening, when using 3200 K tungsten lighting. In the case of cameras with TTL metering, there is no need for additional exposure compensation.

Daylight Photoflood/Photo-Reflector Lamps

• Daylight-type photoflood or photo-reflector lamp output may be lower than that indicated by an exposure meter, so it is advisable to compensate for this by increasing exposure time or the lens opening. Whenever possible, test exposures are recommended.

• Other factors requiring consideration when determining the exposure time, are lamp configuration, use duration and line voltage, as they may affect lamp output and color balance.

5. LIGHTING EQUIPMENT

The condition of umbrellas, reflectors, diffusers and like devices, could influence photographic light quality. Periodically check lighting equipment for deterioration.

Fluorescent Lamps & High-Intensity Discharge

Lamps

• For the best results, the following combinations of color compensating filters are recommended. However, for exacting work, test exposures are advisable.

6. LONG EXPOSURE COMPENSATION

No exposure or color balance compensation is required for exposures within a 1/4000 to 2 second shutter speed range. However, for exposures of 4 seconds or longer, provide the compensations indicated below.

Exposure Time (sec.) 1/4000 to 2 4 16 64

* A “+” followed by a number indicates the required increase in lens opening.

Except for special effects, the normal intensity ratio for main-to-fill subject lighting should remain within 1:4 limits.

7. FILM HANDLING

• Expose film before the expiration date indicated on the film package and process as soon as possible after exposure.

• When loading and unloading roll film, avoid direct sunlight. If there is no shade, turning one’s back toward the sun will shade the film.

• Camera-loaded film should be exposed and processed immediately.

• Unprocessed film should be kept away from X-rays used to inspect checked-in baggage, etc. at airport terminals. Strong X-rays can cause fogging of unprocessed film. It is recommended such film be placed in your carry-on baggage whenever possible.

(Consult with airport personnel for details.)

• Film fogging may occur near X-ray equipment used in hospitals, factories, laboratories and other locations. Always keep film away from possible sources of radiation.

8. FILM STORAGE

Unprocessed Film

• Storing exposed or unexposed film under hot and humid conditions may adversely affect speed, color balance and physical property changes. Store film under the following conditions.

Ï Ordinary Storage: Protect from heat.

Ï Long-term Storage: Below 0°C (32°F)

• Building materials, finishes used on newly manufactured furniture, paints and bonding agents may produce gases which affect photographic film. Do not store film, lightproof boxes of film, loaded cameras or film holders near these materials.

• Before use, allow films to stand at room-temperature over 1 hour. Opening the package/box while film is cold may cause harmful condensation.

Processed Film

Exposure to light, high temperature and humid conditions can cause color changes in processed films.

Therefore, place such films in sleeves and store them in dark, dry, cool and well ventilated locations under the following conditions.

Ï General Storage:

Below 25°C (77°F) at 30% to 60% RH

Ï Long-term Storage:

Below 10°C (50°F) at 30% to 50% RH

NOTE As with all color dyes, those used in this film will discolor or fade with time.

10. TECHNOLOGIES INCORPORATED

IN SUPERIA 1600

10-1 Nano-structured ΣΣΣΣΣ (Sigma) Grain

Technology

• The new SUPERIA 1600 has incorporated the newly developed Nano-structured Σ (Sigma) grain, a further advance over the current emulsion technology, to achieve sharp, smooth image quality, regardless of the film’s ultrahigh speed.

• To achieve the high sensitivity and small volume of the Nano-structured Σ (Sigma) grain, uniform, thincrystal technology was used to produce crystals that are approximately 60% thinner than the hexagonal crystals used in the current SUPERIA 1600 film. The higher uniformity in size and improved light-collection efficiency of these grains have made possible a film with higher sensitivity than that of the current

SUPERIA 1600 and smooth grain quality, regardless of the film’s ultrahigh speed.

10-2 Super Efficient Coupler Technology

The use of new couplers has enhanced color development efficiency.

11. PROCESSING

This film is intended for processing by Fujifilm Processes CN-16, CN-16Q, CN-16FA, CN-16L, CN-16S or

4-3 Processing-Photographic Characteristics

12. PRINTER CONDITIONS

This film can be printed on the same printer setup with results similar to the current film. However, depending on the printer type, a slight blue cast might appear in the overexposed areas. If this occurs, adjustment of printer conditions may be necessary.

13. JUDGING EXPOSURE RESULTS

SUPERIA 1600 exposure results can be accurately predicted by using an electronic densitometer equipped with Status M filters. An 18% gray card, receiving the same illumination as the subject, when read through the

RED filter should render density readings between 0.65

and 0.85 (for exposures under recommended lighting and with optimal film processing).
