  1. Steve,

    I really like a4, it has a very intimate feel to it and I think the composition is on the mark. I too enjoy loading a developing tank and creating something from a piece of film, I know most people go on about seeing the print come up in the tray but for me while developing film there�s no second chance and when I open the tank and look at what I�ve created, I get a kick out of seeing the negatives and realizing the adjustments I�ve made in exposure, composition and development have given me negatives with great possibilities for prints!!

    I also use an F3 and although it doesn�t have all the bells and whistles of the latest equipment available, I feel I can make images that match my intentions. (I believe �bells and whistles� can be a distraction anyway)

    Keep up the good work!

  2. I asked a sales person at a supposedly reputable camera store if they had Tri X Pan in 120 size, after a pause and a funny look from the salesman, he mentioned that Tri X Pan isn�t made in 120 size. As I began explaining I�d been shooting Tri X in 120 for years he looked at me like �Yeah�..Right� and rolled his eyes! I kept my mouth shut and left the store, never to return.

    Being ignorant and arrogant is a recipe for disaster, no matter what line of work is involved!
