Re: [APML] M31 pentax67 e200 FSQ-106...

Hi Jeff and Steve--well my results on M31 just haven't been very good.
Seems like I have a million reasons for why the shot just never seems to 
come out.
Sounds more like fishing than photography!

I switched to only pushing E200 one stop to reduce grain, and was 
pleased with the results.
I have some Provia 400F being developed from last weekend which I also 
have only pushed
one stop based on recommendations from the group--- it happpens to be of 
M31.
If I get anything decent, I'll let you know.

:^) Steve
