Gasp!  Profaning the sacred shape of the Barnack Negative????  Aren't you
the guy who prints a lot of 6x9's on 11x14 paper?  What's wrong with a 4x6
except that it's too small to be big, and too big to be small?

4x6 lab prints are a pain in the @$$ to file, though.  That really gets in
the way of editing and storing your work.  I've got boxes and boxes of lab
envelopes stuffed with 4x6's.  Every once in a while I think of switching to
trannies, but then I just load up another roll of Supra 400 and off I go
down the road to perdition once more...
