Re: [APML] Black Negs a new developement

["Brian Sledz" <brianhome@email.msn.com>]

Hi Jim,
Well funny thing is 3 times the 35mm failed and one time the 120 failed.  I
did the same processing for both day and astro.  I am too stupid and
stubborn to give up on 120.
Has anyone ever had trouble with Lumicon Hypered TP?
Thanks
Brian
