I'm surprised it can get sharp grain structure of a 160 color neg;
I've used microscopes on my negs before but that was awhile ago now I just
have some nice loupes and never never even seen the grain structure of 160
color neg film. Its about as fine from all I can tell as the 100 or slower
iso color neg film of the 80's. Virtually invisible at all but huge and I
mean huge darkroom enlargements.
