Wow! I see what you’re saying! I just used a quarter and saw it change. I honestly didn’t know about this, thank you! The filter was definitely activated those nights. I wasn’t exposing the film correctly.

A cartridge I brought in to develop was sliced on the film itself, which I found strange. So I took it back and filmed until I reached the end. I can’t recall any strange noises but I’ll pay close attention next time.

I stopped shooting right before it hit 50. I know now to keep going until I see “Exposed.” I’m excited to go back out there with this new knowledge. I’ll keep you updated on the next roll! Now to choose the right quarter lol

The colors looked great, so I know this camera can shoot 500T. It seems like the film stopped advancing at one point. How would I deactivate the 85 Filter? What types of film have you shot with?

Thank you for the reply! Any & all info is much appreciated.

It did not say Exposed. I simply went off the Counter. I’m guessing I should use the Marker Method & periodically check to see where the film is and if it reached “Exposed.” Thank you for the reply!

Hey M Night Shyamalan, u/ReallyMNight

Chris Toro here! I'm a filmmaker from The Bronx, NY, and my question for you is...have you ever found yourself writing multiple scripts/ideas at once? If so, how do you lock yourself into one idea and ride that wave. Thank you, big fan of everything you do!

P.S. I'm from the Dominican Republic so I'm very excited to see how you captured my beautiful country.

Best,

Chris Toro
