    The last week or so I seen a bunch of "film" shots scanned and posted,
Here or in a Binaries group. I've been doing the Film thing for about a year
and until very recently I had virtually nothing to compare my "film" shot's
to what's possible with film. So if you still do Film, Please Post!, or as
Alan said, " when you have something, ya gotta give."
