Re: [APML] Sh2-240 and a Provia 100F Film Test

[Reinhard Ilk <ilkr@EUnet.at>]

Sorry, I may be somewhat ignorant, but I haven't read anything about 
hypering ... is this film hypered at all? And, if yes, what are the 
hypering data?
I am desperately looking for a decently performing non-hypered film.

Regards,
Reinhard
