Hi Frank,

While I haven't actually shot any of this film I was given two rolls of
it to test and I have hypered one roll in anticipation of doing some
testing but have gotten sidetracked with some flexure and trying to
resolve it. But the films in the freezer, and if the weather clears.

On another note, while I am certainly not the voice of experience here
(anything but actually), I have seen some photo's taken with Tri-X that
were quite acceptable. They were taken using a Cold Camera, which begs
the question as to how well it would work hypered.... But it is also
true that Tech Pan is a much better film :^)

Best Regards

Bill
