[APML] The forgotton Astro-Film

["August R. Orlandi" <walkabot@execpc.com>]

That right! Konica!  Has anybody tried any of this lately?
Well I have and it looks pretty darn good.
Took a few pictures over the last few nites,under some not so great
conditions.
Like were the object were in the sky,sky glow,wind,and some high cirrus
clouds.
The 2 object photography were Orion Neb. and IC443.
These were taken through a 10" Newtonian telescope at f-3.85 with a
Lumicon
coma corrector and Pentax 6x7 camera on unhypered Konica 400 film.
The Orion shot was 90 min. and the IC443 was 105 min.
If anyone would like to see the photos you can e-mail for them.
These photos are scanned only,no enhancement.
e-mail is: walkabot@execpc.com
Also will try to answered any question on this film.
Also remember this was one of the top films for astro-photos. Along with

Konica 3200.
