Reciprocity failure

No official data available. The manufacturer hasn't published reciprocity specifications for this film.

For long exposures, try starting with a 1.3 exponent (t' = t1.3) as a baseline and bracket your shots. This is a reasonable middle ground that works for many films.

The maker publishes no reciprocity figures for this film, so none are given here. Bracket long exposures. CineStill's product page gives no figures.
