KODAK HAWKEYE Traffic Surveillance Color Film 

 TI-2420

Electronic Flash:

Use the guide numbers in the table below as starting-point 
recommendations for your equipment.  To determine the 
lens opening, divide the guide number by the 
flash-to-subject distance.

 BCPS = beam candlepower seconds

Filters

For light sources other than daylight, use the filtration and 
exposure compensation in the table below.

Note: 

Do not change the film speed setting when metering 

through a filter. Metering through filters may affect light 
meter accuracy; see the meter manual (or camera manual 
for built-in meters) for specific information.

Fluorescent and High Intensity Discharge Light:

Though this film is tolerant of mixed-lighting situations, for 
best color results under uniform fluorescent or 
high-intensity discharge sources, use the exposure and 
filter recommendations given below.  These 
recommendations are starting points.

Actual filtration may vary between lamps and lamp 

manufacturers.  Depending on the specific source, 
additional filtration or special printing may be required to 
achieve best results.

To avoid the brightness and color variations that occur 

during a single alternating-current cycle, use exposure 
times of 1/60 second or longer with fluorescent lamps; 
with high-intensity lamps, use exposure times of 1/125 
second or longer.

Reciprocity

Compensation for reciprocity failure is not necessary for 
exposures of 1/10,000 second to 10 seconds. Exposures 
longer than 10 seconds may require exposure 
compensation and/or filtration, and should be tested for 
the application.
