For those who have not read my post regarding the crescent moon, Radar asked that i post this image in order for him to see what color the film i was using picked up. Keep in mind i was out shooting the moon so my scope wasn't aligned (i also forgot to focus) and this was simply a test of the film.

Kodak Gold 200
60 sec. exp.
Prime focus on 8" reflector (4.9f)

Thanks Saj. It behaves like Kodak Elite Chrome 200. Not a bad little film.

Thanks for the input Ray.

I got to thinking today, however, that much of what i've been reading here about film (mostly your experience) makes reference to exposures of one hour or more. Seeing as how much light got registered on the film in just 60 sec., wouldn't 60 mins grossly over expose my image. My logic here is that 60 times more light would be registered.

Cheers.
