Electronic Flash: Whenever possible, it's a good idea to use
a flash—even outdoors. In daylight, flash can lighten facial
shadows and brighten dark shadows. Flash can also be useful
for action photography to stop the action.
Use the appropriate guide number in the table below as a
starting point for your equipment. Select the unit output
closest to the number given by your flash manufacturer.
Then find the guide number for feet or metres.
To determine the lens opening, divide the guide number
by the flash-to-subject distance. If negatives are too dark
(overexposed), use a higher guide number; if they're too
light (underexposed), use a lower number.

Fluorescent and High-Intensity Discharge Lamps: For
best results without special printing, use the color-correction
filters in the table below as starting points when you expose
these films under fluorescent and high-intensity discharge
lamps. Use exposure times of 1/60 second or longer to avoid
the brightness and color variations that occur during a single
alternating-current cycle.

try a 10C + 20M filter combination and increase exposure by
