2 KODAK PROFESSIONAL ELITE Chrome 100 Film • E-7014E
EXPOSURE
Use the exposure index (EI) numbers below with meters and
cameras marked for ISO or ASA speeds. Do not change the
film-speed setting when metering through a filter. Metering
through filters may affect light meter accuracy; see your
meter or camera manual for specific information. For critical
work, make a series of test exposures.
Daylight
Use the exposures in the table below for average frontlit
subjects from 2 hours after sunrise to 2 hours before sunset.
*
Use f/8 for backlit close-up subjects.
†
Subject shaded from the sun but lit by a large area of clear sky
Electronic Flash
Use the appropriate guide number in the table below as a
starting point for your equipment. First select the unit output
closest to the number given by your flash manufacturer, then
find the guide number for feet or metres. To determine the
lens opening, divide the guide number by the flash-to-subject
distance. If your slides are consistently too thin
(overexposed), use a higher guide number; if they are too
dense (underexposed), use a lower number.

Fluorescent and High-Intensity Discharge
Lamps
Use the color-compensating filters and exposure adjustments
below as starting points to expose these films under
fluorescent or high-intensity discharge lamps. For critical
applications, make a series of test exposures under your
actual conditions.
To avoid the brightness and color variations that occur
during a single alternating-current cycle, use exposure times
of 1/60 second or longer with fluorescent lamps; with
high-intensity discharge lamps, use exposure times of
1/125 second or longer.
*
When the type of fluorescent lamp is unknown, try this filter and
exposure adjustment; color rendition may be less than optimum.
*
This is a high-pressure sodium-vapor lamp. The information in the table
may not apply to other manufacturers’ high-pressure sodium-vapor
lamps due to differences in spectral characteristics.
Note: Consult the manufacturer of high-intensity lamps for
ozone ventilation requirements and safety information on
ultraviolet radiation.
Some primary color filters were used in the previous
tables to reduce the number of filters and keep the exposure
adjustment to a minimum. Red filters were substituted for
equivalent filtration in magenta and yellow. Blue filters were
substituted for equivalent filtration in cyan and magenta.
