Response to low temp. shooting

from Bob Atkins (bobatkins@hotmail.com)
Cold cameras don't really increase EI, they just decrease reciprocity failure, so at very long exposure times (often hours) the effective film speed goes up. At normal exposure times (1 second or less) there is no effect. Cold cameras were used for astrophotography, but these days it's mostly done with CCDs, not film.
