RE: [APML] Test of un-hypered RG200

["Jeff Ball" <jeffball@zoominternet.net>]

Chris, 
The images look great to me.  The RG200 unhypered looks pretty good on
North America.  Perhaps using the unhypered as a luminance and red
channel on red dominant objects and shoot some Provia or E200 for the
blue and green.  I gather you are back east.  I hope to hook up with you
perhaps at Cherry Springs state park this fall.  Best wishes.
Jeff Ball
