Bob:

I purchased some PMG but haven't had the guts to try it yet.  I have read the
PYRO book but not sure that I understand everything yet.  How difficult is it?

Thanks,
Bob Bedwell

<<     My favorite B/W combination is HP-5 developed in PMG (Gordon 
 Hutchins formula) I get smooth tonal separations with an ei of 400.  
 Detail has an etched quality up to 9 x 12 with no apparent grain.  For 
 anything larger I think Kodak Technical Pan exposed at ei 25 developed 
 in technidol is got to be combination of choice.
     Happy trails, Bob >>
