Re: [APML] Kodak m.v.p. 800

Dominic, not that I doubt you but your test is a pretty tough one. I
think the first photo of the milky way is redeemable with some
anti-vignetting. The aurora shot is very short exposure - interesting
would be to have gone 40 and 60 seconds (though I must admit my surprise
that 800 ASA film recorded so little in 20 seconds at 2.8. The last shot
is, again, tough to judge - evening twilight is difficult to guage exposure.

I'm going to buy three rolls today and put one in my second astro camera
and one in my daytime camera and I'll post anything I get that works.
