It's not often I disagree with Erins views. But I'm not for a P for program enlarging system. I think such systems are for photographers who want their assistants to print their weddings faster. Not fine art printing or quality commercial printing.>> Mark, Basically I agree with you. I am not thinking that this system will give me fine prints on the first try, but will get me a reasonable straight print quickly that i can then refine and print more expressively. I like to print everything that looks interesting on the contacts to 8x10, and then after I've had a chance to study them, go back and and do better prints. I consider the first round of printing to be enlarged contacts. My darkroom time is very limited and the Heiland sounds like it might make what time I do have more efficient. We'll see...
