Subject: [Leica] More Q's about Tech Pan

Two Q's re: recent discussions about Technical Pan:

1. The film is somewhat thinner than other films (i.e. 4.3 mils vs. 4.7 mils
for TMX and TX) - would this affect the manner in which the film sits on the
pressure plate ? 

2. The Kodak technical publication warns " Load in complete darkness". Why ?
Does the anti-halation coating behave similar to Kodak HIE and sucks in
stray photons ?

Just wondering

William
