Carlos, I'll know more when this latest roll comes back from the processor. I shot a mix of indoors and afternoon shade with various blue and pink (?) filters so we'll see what happens! Perhaps I'm color blind which adds to the confusion? Appreciate your input. Health, Peace Lance Selma, NC 27576 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In a message dated 2/22/2008 10:41:14 A.M.

Filtration could be confusing in shade or without shade and this is the reason I rarely use filters with slide film, except for certain hours of the day, but it does not happen for the shade only, it happens for the sunlight too.
