    Hello and I need help

    I am new to large format and have aquired some very nice vintage Graflex cameras and some outdated film that I would like to shoot. Can anyone lend a hand with ISO designations on old film? I have searched everywhere and am trying to get out of buying the Kodak book if possible. Does any know of or have scanned in a complete guide for old kodak films from the 50's ? Any help is much appreciated

    Unfortunately, if the film is from the fifties it is probably no longer usable. But give it a shot. Try it at ISO 6 and see if you get an image and adjust from there.

    What films in particular? The most common ones would have been around 100, but would lose both speed and contrast through time, and pick up quite a bit of fogging, probably.
    Thanks, but I'd rather just watch:
