Thanks for that advise. I thought they would go under the 5X7, but this make more sence.

All-

Not sure if this has been announced elsewhere on the board, and this is probably not exactly the right place to post this, but it can't hurt:

Keith Canham is putting together the group buys for 5x7 Kodak color negative film right now. The films are Portra 160 & 400, and Ektar 100. Each should be about the same price as last time, $400 or so for 50 sheets. There is a min. order of 30 boxes needed for each type for that type to be cut to that size. As of the other day, Keith says that the order list currently currently 11 boxes of Portra 400 committed, 16 boxes of Portra 160 committed and 5 boxes of Ektar 100 committed.

I'm already stocked up with the 2 Portra emulsions; I'm on the Ektar list only this time.

From September -- short backpack trip with a friend and my 5x7 (Eastman View No.2 with Computar 210/6.3).

TMax400 in Pyrocat HD, I believe. Negative re-photographed on a light table with digital camera and then inverted in PhotoShop.

Just got back from another backpack trip to the same place, solo this time. Sunny skies but frozen ground and a cold creek to constantly ford! Took the 4x5 and Tech Pan.
