Hello all,
I'm planning on bringing my 4X5 with me when I visit Carlsbad Caverns later this month. I have several questions regarding photographing in the caves:
1) Are there any restrictions on tripods in National Park cave areas? I seem to recall reading something about that at some point.
2) Do I need to use different film, tungsten perhaps, to compensate for color shifts due to the artificial light sources in the caves? I'm used to using Velvia, and would prefer to just stick with that.
3) Any ideas for a ballpark exposure range, say using Velvia 50 at f22?
Thanks for your help!
