Time will tell Bill.I shot 10-12 frames with it on and i used the guide of +3 as the little book recommended.I also took some frames of the same subject without the #25 for comparison. BTW i kept the camera at 400 and opened up lense wize. If the weather is good this weekend(by that i mean cold and snow still on the ground)I;ll finish the roll and take it in.Im curious as to its outcome.

I find with FP4+, which I nominally rate at 80, I need to do a + 1 2/3 stop exposure compensation when I use a #25 filter.
