[Leica] Pushing Provia F400--one stop, two stops

[dlridings at gmail.com (Daniel Ridings)]

It's a guy-thing. The whole process is really so simple that some guys
just think they have to complicate it. It's boring otherwise.

Real boring ... with the exception of Agfa APX 400 I just get stuck
using the speeds that are printed on the boxes. I must agitate and
have a thermometer that matches the manufacturer's too, since I end up
pretty much using their times too. :-)

I wonder what they'll come up with for processing their digital files?
Over-exposing and processing on a slower computer?
