wide.angle Posted September 11, 2006 Share #1 Posted September 11, 2006 Advertisement (gone after registration) Yesterday, I ran into a new situation, the need to push Velvia 100F ... I tried to be conservative and go just one stop as I have no idea how it behaves. Can anyone comment on how well this film holds up to a push? I will be sending it in this week for processing.

Lucklik Posted September 11, 2006 Share #2 Posted September 11, 2006 I never tried to push Velvia, I interested to read your comments after your films has been processed. rgs Luc Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrEd Posted September 12, 2006 Share #3 Posted September 12, 2006 Hi Scott, Hope all is well. I'm dying to see the results, Experiments like this are always interesting. I pushed Kodak Pro ISO 200 and then ISO 400, not very pleased with the outcome in my own experiences, designed for one purpose and no flexibility for tinkering with it. So from now on, I "ll just go by the flow. Which by the way, If you stay within the limitations, it's a wonderful film. That's my two pennies. Cheers, Ed. Ps. For this I used Non-Leica Ginnie pigs .

egpj Posted September 24, 2006 Share #4 Posted September 24, 2006 From what I remember reading Velvia does not like to be pushed but there should be something about this on the inside of the box. NOW, Provia 400, you can push that stuff to 4800 with great results. You had better have a good lab around for this though with people who are attentive. I have personally pushed Provia 400 to 3200 with excellent results. Here is a link to a thread on the RFF about doing this. http://www.rangefinderforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=25602 Cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wide.angle Posted September 29, 2006 Author Share #5 Posted September 29, 2006 I used a new lab and was not too happy about the work. Some of the images came out ok, but none looked like I had hoped. I'd post one on the forum, but they weren't captured with Leica glass (used Zeiss). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
