Hello :o I shot today a roll of Kodak Portra 400 NC, thinking it was Portra 160 and I even rated it on my lightmeter at ISO 100. Is everything dead or is there a way to save it, if I ask the lab to pull ? :(

thanks in advance .. stupid me :bang:

If it was HP5 you could pull it off, haven't made this mistake with color (yet).

I'd guess the lab could pull it one stop and you should be ok- Portra is pretty forgiving of overexposure isn't it?

should be! let's cross fingers, i'll send it to the lab tomorrow. my HP5+ roll was shot correctly and is drying, the photos look already wonderfully exciting ! ;-)

But I must confess, it's no RF stuff, rather MF SLR...

Should be just fine. My first roll with my first m-Leica was portra 400nc accidently shot @ ISO100 and everything a OK with the negative / images.

You mean without any pull ? :)

Now I remember better; the first half of the roll was shot at ISO100 and the rest ISO400 -- can't see any difference in negatives... And yes, without pull :)
