But 'they' claim that the dr5 process for Scala is better. It is expensive no doubt - even Leicaphiles have their limits. I mean come on - what's a few thousand dollars for an ASPH 35 - - but when the shop owner pulled out a 300/2.8 AFS NIKON and said it was $4400 I just about choked. ernie On Wednesday, July 16, 2003, at 09:06 PM, Bill Barton wrote: > Ernie, > > I went thru a stage last year where I was shooting t-max 100 and the > Ilford semi infrared and a few rolls of scala and had them done in the > dr5 process.
