    Re: Sodium Thiosulfate "Plain Fixer" question

    Interestingly, heylloyd lists "plain hypo fix" as using 160g anhydrous sodium thiosulfate into 1 liter (along with 30-60 g sodium sulfite).

    Re: Acros Dynamic Range

    As Joanna shows above, you've got a lot of exposure range with Acros to play with. Especially if you're used to shooting transparancies!

    Jump in and get some Acros - it's a great film.

    It's linear for a long way out past a normal exposure range.
