so what type of film would you recommend?

thanks

Actually it depends on the situation that you are taking... if low light condition use iso 800 lor... if bright daylight u use iso 800 for fish? ;P

very bright light use iso 50 velvia lor :P else usually i wud go for iso 200 films :P

I have a SuperSampler.

I find that ISO 200 is barely sufficient. I usually use ISO 400, and when need to, push a stop for developing.

the cybersampler comes with 1 roll of ISO800 36exp film.

should i use 800 film since all shots i take would be outdoor in the sun?

what you mean by "push a stop for developing" ??

the camera has a fixed aperture & shutter speed, meaning you have to choose the right film speed for the occasion. so it depends on roughly what event you want to shoot.

if your film was too slow for the occasion (used 400 when 800 needed) then you can ask the shop to push one stop (400 > 800) in developing, to make up for underexposure.

if it's really bright at the beach, 800 film might be overexposed. so do some guesswork first, and bring maybe 2/3 types of film to the beach and load only when you're there and can see the actual lighting situation.
