[APML]: 38 films tested (with REVISION)




SPLUT!!!

OK, that sound was the egg landing on my face.

I said several days ago that my tests showed that E100SW seemed to have very
little sensitivity at 660 nanometers.  I just looked at Jerry's page at
ftp://ftp.cyberenet.net/home/jml/HTML/FOURFILM.HTM
and it got me to thinking that there MUST be something wrong with my tests.
Too many people are getting good pictures with this film for it to be a red dud.

Well...I found the problem.  Fatigue I guess, because it is now plain as day
that I looked at the film strip BACKWARDS.  Now that all three brain cells
are functioning, it is obvious I was looking at the 15 second exposure, not
the two minute exposure that I used as the standard comparitor between all
films.

I will look closer and accordingly revise the color slide section of my
tests later tonight, but for now, I recant and say E100SW may not be too
shabby after all.  I goofed on that film.  Sorry if I mislead folks.
