So what he did was have the originals *immediately* duped by a high-grade lab. Originals were filed away. The dupes were shopped around to buyers, shown in slides shows, etc. The originals only came out to make murals. I would think that making dupes of your most precious work, and cooking, glass mounts, etc, *those* would be a good practice, assuming you can get a really excellent dupe made. (There was a good thread on that a while back.) bmw - -----Original Message----- From: Sander van Hulsenbeek <vanhulsenbeek@wxs.nl> To: Leica-Users <leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us> Date: Friday, June 19, 1998 1:03 PM Subject: Re: [Leica] Pradovit and Colorplan lenses >Christoph and other CF adepts: > >>I get best results when I preheat the slides in the stove at approx. 50C. > >Hey, what is this?
