The light out here in sunny California is very consistent. The vast 
majority of my shots
are taken at f16@1/500th on Tri-X (400asa). Soup is always the same.

I think you are right, it would be interesting to take a sequence of 
test frames on the same
roll. I'll give that a try and we'll see what happens.
