Very nice pics! Thanks for posting them... but just so you know, if you're worried about your flash reflecting off the building... from that distance, it's not going to be a problem. You might get a pinprick off a shiny globe, but nothing more if you're twenty feet or more away.

And you certainly aren't going to illuminate the building at all beyond twenty feet of distance.

It's kind of like those funny people who try to take flash pictures of Cinderella Castle at night. It's just wasting the battery.

My main worry was it flecting off the semi-shiny wall which was right next to me, ya know?

Okie, i think that's enough photo fixing for tonight!

I like the new gamma pics now :) They have the real colors instead of an almost black and white look.

A film question...

If i'm supposed to use a slower film for low light, how come 400 doesn't say low light but 800 does?

Which should I use tonight if I decide to get some pics around Epcot?

I think 400 is can still be used in daylight/night but 800 is purely for dark shots. If you take any photos at night avoid the flash at all costs, if the flash is on you'll most likely get a gray photo. See if you're camera has as setting of night pictures. If so, find a steady surface to put your camera on or object to lean on so you don't get 'camera shake'. With longer exposures you'll most likely get this. If you have a tripod that'll work perfectly! thanks for all the cool photos Rob :king:!

Now i'm really confused...

800 is considered "High speed" film compared to 400, the box says so..

So higher speed film for lower light? And the 800 takes good day shots - haven't done the 400 yet, maybe today during the day.

I think if you take photos with 800 film during the day, all you're shots will be overexposed or very grainy. With 800 film you don't need a lot of light to get the picture perfect. It doesn't take much light to get a good picture ( the perfect time would be night since there's only lamps to give light). "high speed" refers to how long it takes to capture an image. With 800 film it only takes 1/250 of a sec to capture a picture (vs 1/125 a sec with 400).

As for 400 it's still an all purpose film where it can be used during the day or night.


hope this helps. :)

I was told I was a very kind person by a guest I assisted, by going and geting them the proper Guest Assistance card from Guest Services while they went on the ride :)

I got left out in the sun for over an hour :(

I got rained on :(

I didn't get my first break for 3 hours :(

I got an apology for not getting my break :)

So, it was an okay day.
