Cotty,
I think you can add more fuel to the fire. A while back I was
requested to shoot B&W for a client and so I went to my lab (Agfa

What you lose in the process is typical grain. Who said that grain is the

Greetings,
Your right Herb, and I'm quite sure that in future digital camaras will have
a switch to select "infra red modes" I hope that it will show the

is given now by the Kodak infra red film.
