The exposure times listed here should be used as a starting point. Always
make exposures that are longer and shorter than the recommended time.
Also, try bracketing your exposures, taking a few photos at each shutter
speed. This will ensure that you will get a good photo. It is not uncommon
to go through an entire roll of 36 exposures and have only one shot turn out.
Also, don’t expect to record more detail than you can see visually in the
eyepiece at the time you are photographing.
Once you have mastered the technique, experiment with different films,
different focal length eyepieces, and even different filters.
