Response to Best Portrait film in natural lighting?

from Ryuji Suzuki (rsuzuki@rs.cncdsl.com)
Is the model male or female?

As Ted said, I suggest that you forget about film and focus on lighting unless you already learned a lot about it. Natural light is easy to start with and difficult to perfect. A Fill flash is effective but it's not the easiest thing, at least if you want something more than auto-everything result. I suggest you begin with a reflector.

As a starting point, I suggest Plus-X. No filter for male, a yellow or orange filter for female. Develop in ID-11 1+1. Indeed, this is my favorite for usual portraits.
