I'm looking for some recommendations on colour neg film that would work well for an architectural exterior at dusk. The western sky will be in the background and the building is well lit by sodium lights with yellow gels. The interior lights are a real mix, including fluorescent and tungsten.
The client wants that nice, rich, blue sky that you get about 20 minutes after sunset and my digital test shots indicate an exposure of about 30sec at f22. I've done some homework and it looks like tungsten film such as Kodak Portra 100T would be best. All the daylight balanced films I've looked at are not recommended for exposures over 2sec.
Is tungsten film the best choice? I know the sky will go quite blue, but will the colours be believable?
This is a bit off topic, but I'm planning to use a Rodenstock Grandagon 90/6.8 that I have borrowed from a friend. Will I have to worry about fall off? He said no, but I just want to be sure.
Thanks very much,
Andrew
