Exposure Record

[Nick Stanislo]

Can anyone recommend a source of exposure records other than the old Zone VI not ebooks? Does anyone use a home made exposure record that they'd be willing to s hare? Thanks.

I went to a copy center and reduced page 265 in Ansel Adams "The Negative". I found a mid sized notebook to insert the exposure records into and it works great. Sometimes when I am backpacking, I use a mini recorder just because I have so much else going on I don't want to waste time on the unessential. I can always fill in the exposure log back at the darkroom.

So far the beste thing I've come accross is a small notebook of waterproof paper made by Rite In The Rain (www.riteintherain.com). I just write down the necessary information with a pencil and move on. Having the waterproof paper has really come in handy at times when working in the rain, snow, or on the occasion that I periodically drop the notebook in a stream, lake, mud, etc.

Fred Picker devised an excellent exposure record. Calument still carries it. Not expensive either!

I have a homemade version, a variation on Ansel Adams', that fits four records on one letter size sheet of paper. It is in Microsoft Publisher format. If that might be useful, e-mail and I'll send a copy.

I have a modified negative exposure record adapted from the one in Ansel Adams' "The Negative". You can access this and various other photographers information sheets I have on my web site at: http://www.TranquilityImages.Com/tools.shtml

They are all in Adobe's Portable Document File (PDF) format.

I've been working on a series of notebooks for people still shooting film, a comprehensive set for different formats and printing in the darkoom. Might be a good resource for you.

If you have a few minutes you can find out a lot more at the Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign:

Please tell me you didn't dig up a 13 YEAR OLD thread so that you could tell people about your kickstarter project. Just start a NEW thread.

I use a "Reporter's Notebook", made by Tops, sold as their catalog number 8030 (package of 12).
It's like an old steno pad, same length but only half the width.

My shooting jacket has an inside pocket of the right size to hold it.
