Two questions:
1.With the 19mm R, after the 5 meter mark I have no idea if I am in better
focus there or at infinity for most of my "scenics" which begin say 20 feet
or more in front of me. I use the grid screen (so perhaps I would do better
with a split image etc screen?). Would I get sharper pix using an M/.58 with
the 21 mm. Think in terms of very great enlargement, where one is trying to
discern a particular detail.
2. I am trying to understand the difference between the Kodachromes 64 and
200. I find the 200 to be more open and airy, so to speak, not blocking up
shadowy areas, even more latitude in the highlights. Is this correct. I
gather that the 200 is more magenta in its balance, and this deals with the
overly blue (UV caused) images I get with 64.
Also, and 81A seems not to be enough to deal with the blueness. What do
you recommend.
Thanks very very much,
Martin
