Once I see the negs- I'm certain I'll be thrilled and think that Mark is an idiot and Erwin's gone crazy... (This is HUMOR!!) and be totally relieved- I know you would never give bad advice or equipment! BTW- received the Jupiter 3 50/1.5 (poor man's Summilux) and been shooting with it; will have results next week. I'll let you know. The lens is nice, except no click stops on aperture ring may make me crazy! Marc- can you give me your development times/temps for TMZ and Xtol? I'm also interested in any development advice for ASA's 1600/3200/6400...... thanks- Bob Keene "Everybody's Pal" (but not 'everyone' is "everybody"...)
