I could not even find an eyelash or hair in the photos that I examined. What should have been detail was just a blob. Kind of like looking at a tree from a few hundred yards away. No leaves, just a blob. <SNIP> >I am presently checking out my 21 mm ASPH, 35 mm Summicron ASPH and 135 mm APO, and the negatives really look good but they were shots of high contrast subjects, in bright light, with EFKE KB 25 and Tech Pan from a solid tripod and then processed in T.E.C. or a Willi Beutler derivative for sharpness. > ========== Hey, that brownie box camera? Where does one find it? ohh... I of course agree in any case. But isn't it more of a problem with those of us who shoot only slides (100VS, Kodachrome, Velvia,etc)? I think they are both faced with this, but (I may be wrong on this...) doesn't the element of color, factored in, present even greater difficulty? It's tough enough but when the precision of a red is demanded i'd think this is compounding the issue...?
