Actually, with overexposure chromogenic films are finer grained than silver-based films. And the problem of archival quaity with them is moot, becuase you don't have to worry about color shift. From what I've read, the current generation of chromogenic films will outlive their creators. - -- Eric Welch Carlsbad, CA http://www.neteze.com/ewelch "You can't cajole someone into loving you by simply being nice to be around." - Garrison Keillor - As heard on "A Prairie Home Companion"
