Joe,
Thanks for posting the results of your tests. The Fuji Super HQ 200 does
show some promise. The NA nebula looks pretty good for right out of the box
film.  

Once again, thanks for the hospitality. I enjoyed the short stay earlier
this week, glad the weather cooperated.

Here are a few Chiefland Star Party photos.  AP EDFS 6" @ f:7, 90mins
w/Tokai Deep Sky filter on Fuji Super HQ 200.

Does "Fuji Super HQ" sound familiar?  The film sold has Wal-Mart on the film
can.  It looks like Wal-Mart may have gone to Fuji and struck a deal.  Fuji
then might have gotten out their old emulsion of the 'Fuji Super HQ 400' 
fame to fulfill contract.  Sure hope so.

It sure was a surprised to see how well this 200speed film worked right out
of the can.  Hyper experimentation is in the near future for this film. 
Cross your fingers.

If anyone ins interested in a good film for "Blue only" check out Kodak
Ultra Color 400.  Red & Green in long exposure, up to 90mins, is almost
totally absent.  Only hints of very bright emission ergions come through. 
The Blue that does come through is rich and deep making a good film to stack
on top of another lacking in blue.  The Flaming Star, IC405, only shows the
reflection with hints of the reflection red, M45 has deep blue reflection. 
Oddly though, very bright stars have small red rings around them...joe  :)
