Dan,
Count me in as one of the "feet draggers" in responding to your survey...I have
had a traditional darkroom for 20+ years and do not plan to "go digital". I just
love working in the darkroom and sloshing paper through the chemicals. Not
to sound cliché, but I remember the early experiences of printing and have not
tired of it to this day! Currently, I use a Beseler MX with Aristo VC head for
printing 35mm, 2 1/4, and 4x5. Schneider lenses for all; 80mm, 100mm, and
150mm, respectively. I also contact print (gosh...does anyone do this anymore?)
8x10 with this same setup. In the near future, I hope to be printing my 35mm
Leica negs with a V35 and 40mm/f2.8 Focotar.

Sorry it took me so long to sit and compose a message.

Best regards,
Alan Huntley
