Mark, 

Projecting light through a negative is a sin!  You are making a copy of a
copy!
True photography - writing with light - is done by Daguerreotype - writing
with light on silver coated copper!  Anything else is just too many steps
removed!

And keeping them still is easy - digitalis to the rescue!

I insist!

Norm

One guy's intolerance is another guys gross crass bass indulgence.

To think that one can create a photograph of any respectable consequence on
a chip of 24x36mm rollfilm is ridiculous.
We all know that the only camera worth bothering with is a Deardorf.

keep them still for those 5 minute exposures. But they always blink the kids
nowadays have no self control.
