They're on the way.  I don't have hypering equipment just yet, so I'm going
to rely on the larger aperature of the Epsilon and a good dark site for my
next try at that crafty witch. 
Unfortunatley, we've had heavy snow lately, and it's been under 10F at night
here, probably below 0F at my closest dark site, if I can get to it.
Hopefully it will dry up some this week.

I wonder how E200 would work on these blue objects.  I haven't tried it with
the Epsilon yet, since the shop in town wants $14 a roll for it and I have
yet to mail order some (at about 1/2 the price). Also, I've seen a couple of
recommendations for Portra 400 VC on the Astromart Astrophotography forum.
Has anyone on the list tried this film?
