Kodak on Variable Film Development: NO!
Frank Pittel wrote in message ...
Interestingly enough I can't seem to find this book for sale. The only refernece I can find is to a long out of print book from 1952. It's clear from reading new publications from Kodak that they have come to see the light. No, perhaps those who knew what the hell they were talking about retired or died, dumbass.... |

Look - Both of You! Veracity in the commercial domain is not the peer-reviewed constant it is (when at its best) in the scientific domain. Kodak is certainly not excempt from suspicion in their current technical proclaims. Get over it. A generation or two has passed through the veil we knew as their true nature. Kodak can be as full of **** as anyone. They have adopted a marketing agenda in place of their once default-superior place in the field. BE SKEPTICAL OF EVERYTHING! |

Frank, Beating a dead horse is more rewarding than a discussion on the Zone System with this individual. So is pounding sand, ****ing up a rope, etc. etc. etc... I need to update my filters. I thought I ignored everything MS wrote... Ignorance is bliss, and ignore MS is sooooo blissful... Jim Address the goddamn post, asshole! |

It's more likely that while the engineers were working with Ansel Adams during the '50s on the Zone system they came to realize the value of using development time to control the contrast of negatives. This would certainly be a more likely reason for Kodak shifting it's position and advice on using development time to control negative contrast. In any case the improvements I got in both the print-ability of my negatives and the improvement I got in my prints after starting to use the zone system is enough of a reason for me to continue using the zone system. The reversal of Kodak's position on the matter simply reinforces my position. -- Keep working millions on welfare depend on you ------------------- |
