The most common comment was "Well, this >one has more detail but this one is sharper--" about the TMX and TMZ shots Mike is right. That's one reason Rodinal is considered a developer that increases apparent sharpness. It really emphasizes grain, and the edge effect pay off is much sharper looking pictures. Whereas a developer like Microdol, which makes grain smaller by eating away at the edges reduces the edge effect and makes the grain (and picture) look a bit mushy. ========== Eric Welch St. Joseph, MO http://www.ponyexpress.net/~ewelch Never forget: 2 + 2 = 5 for extremely large values of 2.
