[Leica] Your opinions please

[Nathan Wajsman]

For me, the first one is too extreme, which is what I said when you first showed it. I think the last one is the best, it preserves the tones and you can punch up the contrast a bit and still have some midtones left. It looks like the negative is overdeveloped if you are having so much difficulty scanning it.

Un abrazo,
Nathan
