Shooting in overcast conditions


I will be traveling to Seattle Washington in March, and would like some advice on film, settings, etc.
for that climate. I expect most every
day to be overcast. Any special films,
or settings suggestions would be helpful. I have a Minolta Maxxum 5.

  That's the ideal lighting condition for shooting except you may use a warming filter, 81A or 81B, to reduce the blue cast recorded on film. Try also the saturated films like Kodak Portra 160VC or Fuji 160 NPC. Normal setting will be fine. Hope this helps.
