I can't remember the filter number, but if you look at the paper that comes with the film, now on the inside of the box on Kodak film it will say. It is a blue filter I think an 81a. Also the is a filter for tungsten (sp?) films to be able to shoot outdoors. Any camera store will be able to tell you want the filter is. You could just use a blue filter, but I would suggest using the correct one or using a flash. >Also is there a filter that will allow me to use high speed film >(iso 1000) outside in brite sun light without shooting at 1/1000 sec >at f22 ? > Dennis Wombough Neutral Density filters do this job and come in several densities, it is also useful if you want a more limited depth of field with normal films and/or slower shutter speeds. There are filter to do just about anything, photo magazines sometimes have articles on different filters. As a side note I hope you and everyone reading this uses a filter all the time to protect the lens, like a UV filter or whatever. I don't know if this has been brought up before or not, but it can really save your lens. Kemasa.
