I agree. It's a stunning film for some purposes. For REALLY high contrast ranges, try a consumer C41 film like Kodak Gold 200, then scan as b/w. Amazing tonal range, and excellent sharpness/granularity. Kodak's consumer print films are one of the unsung marvels of the photographic world. - -- Johnny Deadman photos: http://www.pinkheadedbug.com music: http://www.jukebox.demon.co.uk
