Re: [APML]New images with my Borg

["Daniel Reyna" <dreyna14@earthlink.net>]

I've spent the past year shooting Super HQ and I love the color balance.  In
my experience it is very neutral with no bad habits.  I feel the the Super
HQ may be among the best emulsions out there, overall.  The prints from the
negatives are fantastic.  I think my problem is my scanner.  I had a
terrible time with this month's shots but last month's were a piece of cake.
Also, the blue channel on my scans can be terribly noisy.  Time for a new
one.  I might end up scanning the print on a flatbed in order to get good
color information.
