So much wasted time. ========================================================================================= Yeah. One of my first tasks as a student worker in the photo department I later ran was making glass lantern slides for a chemistry professor who didn't like 35mm. I also used to have to process 20 rolls of Kodak Direct Positive film in one batch - 10 SS reels with two rolls back to back on each, in tall glass cylinders that held a gallon of solution. All in the dark, of course, for the 40 minutes it took. And I learned to develop my regular B&W film by inspection. - Alan Alan Magayne-Roshak, Senior Photographer University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Photo Services (Retired) UPAA Photographer of the Year 1978 UPAA Master of the Profession 2014 amagayneroshak at gmail.com <http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Alan+Magayne-Roshak/> "All the technique in the world doesn't compensate for an inability to notice.
