I have been asked to photograph a single painting, and could use some help on film selection and metering. I am a B&W landscape guy, so have no experience with artificial light or color film, and usually do zone system metering with a 1 degree spot. The requirement is for 4X5 transparency film, either Fuichrome or Ektachrome. I will have an incident meter and, lacking artificial light, plan on photographing in open shade.
Any suggestions on film type and metering method (incident or reflective)?
Thanks for your help.
