[APML] Fuji NPH400 tests posted

[Grant <GB1029@inter-linc.net>]

Bobby,
I've posted some of the images.

Double Cluster - http://members.inter-linc.net/gb1029/dblCluster.html
Orion Nebula - http://members.inter-linc.net/gb1029/orionnebula_nph400.html

The M42 shot was just a single 10min exp.  I didn't do any smoothing or 
sharpening in an attempt
to accurately show the films' grain.
Be sure to read the notes at the bottom of each image.  I've noted what I 
thought about the film.

The NGC7001 shot is not even worth posting.  The core of the galaxy was 
captured, but not much
more than that.  35min may not be enough exp time, but I expect a longer 
exp will provide minimal benifit.

Any additional analysis of the film welcome.

Regards,
Grant
