I'm out in the cold I guess, now that I think about it. Unless I can buy some ND filters locally.

By "filters" I was planning on shooting my X1 green filter, which is a bit over 2 stops. But then I remembered this is color film! Of course I always use colored filters on B&W to attenuate light, but I don't have a proper ND filter at all. I do have a circular polarizer which I think is 1 stop, so by using that at f/16, at a higher frame rate, I might be able to just squeak by in the daylight.

By the way, what frame rate is best to shoot at if I'm planning on later experimenting with NTSC telecining? This camera seems to have FPS steplessly adjustable. It has three evenly spaced markings on the dial....8, 16 and 32 fps. I would have to interpolate a guess for 18 and 24fps.
