  hey, ndroo, great tungsten shots. Thanks for the tip about seeking low-light situations. i bought some of this film a year ago (close-out at a university book store), but hadn't used any of it, 'cause i couldn't quite anticipate the best way to use this rare peculiar stuff for xpro. Ready now! Thanks for sharing.

  How were you filtering your camera for the shots? Tungsten balanced film will always give a bluish cast in daylight because it is not properly balanced for 5000+ K light if it is unfiltered, but is should reproduce normal or warm tones under artificial light at the 3200K ish mark. Fuji and Kodak both continue to produce tungsten balanced film, so you should be able to get your hands on it for a while anyway. Nice work!

  Thanks.

  @kino-eye : What do you mean by 'filtering your camera for the shots'? Sorry I don't quite understand that.

  I just meant to ask how, and what type, of filtration was used on the camera when the shots were taken. I know that from shooting tungsten balanced reversal film for cinema, I use a #85 warming filter when shooting in daylight to correct the film. That's all.
