[APML] Kodak Max 400 Versatility and Walmart prints on CD

[Eric Beard <ericzbeard@yahoo.com>]

Hi all,

Just thought I'd report on the latest film I tried
with my barn door mount and OM-1: Kodak Max 400
Versatility.  It's no good.  With the 800 speed film I
got a good 'red response' (I think that's what you
guys call it) in only a minute, but with the 400 I
exposed for 6 minutes (round stars, hooray!) and got
nothing at all from the N. American Nebula.

Here's the earlier shot, 1 minute with the 800:

and my last shot, 6 minutes with the 400 (I decided to
go for the "star chart" look for fun):

Oh, and I went for the "Prints on CD" option at
Walmart.. they were all 72 dpi.  Yes, "Seventy-Two".
Ick.
