I had the Vivitar UWS out in Blackpool at the weekend loaded with some Fuji Sensia ASA400 slide film. I intend on having it cross processed.

Given that the camera has fixed... everything I wondered if I should ask the developer to push the film?

I'm told the UWS has an aperture of f/11 at around 1/125. The conditions varied from bright sun (the weather was nice :D ) - and shooting into the sun at times - to a little cloudy.

One of the nice things about film is it's wider latitude than digital.
You might be pleasantly surprised when you get the pics back.
I'd only suggest pushing/pulling a stop or two at the lab if I was very confident in knowing what I had on that roll.
(I'm talking about light metre usage, really.)


Then there's another part of me going 'It's Lomography, isn't this all part of the fun?' ;)

That's what I keep telling myself. "just shoot" and all that! I'm just dreading that moment I haven't had in a long time. The one after spending a fiver on a film, eight quid on developing and getting an empty roll back :lol:

I shall send it off and see what happens....
