[Frameworks] Tri x reversal super 8

[Jeff Kreines]

How you use a light meter can also be a significant factor — poor metering technique can give readings that are several stops off. My personal preference is an incident meter. 

With reversal stock always err towards slight underexposure. 

Good luck. Shoot short tests.
