Plus it was my first cup of coffee of the day. We both know that basic practices of photography is not what we theoretically imagine them to be; but what in practice what really goes down. Bringing us back to your original statement.... I'd recommend anyone who thinks copy negs have much use at all to try making one. And having done that try making a print from it is if you cant its not a copy negative is it!? dust off your darkroom. Take your million dollar neg that you only touch with mini mouse gloves and try to make a half decent copy out of it with one of those odd gizmos in the catalogs. Just because somebody makes some crazy gizmo does not mean anybody uses it. About the only use I've ever seen for a 35mm "dupe" is for multi screen slide shows.
