As Marty has pointed out they are all listed and described on the USA site. I had looked on the global and Australian sites where they are not shown at all. Also encouraging sign in that new transparency emulsions are still being released. These were displayed in a glass case on the Fujifilm stand at the recent Photo Imaging World 2006 Sydney, trade and public national show recently. Film cameras, incidentally represented only by some M's (faithful Leica distributor, may your powers increase) And that was the total analog world for the show, by all accounts.

The first roll we hand developed (in ID11) did exhibit uneven development on one edge, so those suggestions are very helpful. I shall be sure to give them a try. The Rolleicord V that I can borrow is my fathers, plenty of D76 in the cupboard, and you've shared your developing method. Now all I need is your talent ;-) I was surprised to see that the film was Neopan 400. The Delta 400 I had tries appears unpleasantly grainy (for portraits) to my taste, at least the way I processed it. Lots more to learn. Btw, I visited the Fujifilm web sites and can't find any mention of B/W emulsions anywhere. Not sure if that's an ominous sign. Cheers Hoppy -----Original Message----- ------------------------------
