Originally posted by ruthiek: I know this isn't a digital question, but a friend of mine asked me if she can shoot slide film in her point-and-shoot when she goes out tomorrow with her camera club.
Slide film is 35mm so logic tells me she should be able to -- but I have no idea whether you can or not.
Anybody know? Thanks. |
Yes, you can. Keep in mind though that the results may be mixed, depending on the lighting. Print film, which PnS cameras are designed for, has much greater latitude than slide film. The metering system in a PnS camera may not be accurate enough. In other words, a scene which may have gotten acceptable results with print film may not produce a quality image with slide film.
All that aside, I have shot slide film in PnS cameras and gotten good results.
