: : : I shot a load of 1600 ASA film on 400 ASA, they have come
back real dark after processing, Is there any way they can be
printed more clearly?

: : You have used two full f/stops more, I would imagine it would
be very difficult. Although highly dependant on film latitude,
one f/stop is manageable, two may be too much.
: : Sorry. Shoot again.

misspelled).
If you shot 1600 ASA film at 400 ASA settings, the slides
would tend to be be overexposed and not too dark, but too light.
If you shoot 400 ASA film at 1600 ASA settings the slides would
be underexposed (dark) and would benefit by push processing. In
the original case I guess pull processing would be the procedure
to follow but once the film is developed - not much can be done,
I think.
Someone needs to straighten me out if I have this backwards.
thanks - Eric Jorgensen (pretty much a beginner)
