    Not bad for an 84 year Old Fogey 'Beginner' at 'Digital Processing' compared with my usual 'Darkroom Processing'

    Thanks Craig --- you give m some Great Comments -- I have many years experience in several 'Camera Clubs' and darkroom work which i can carry over into 'Digital Processing' of scanned negatives. For example '' CURVES' I discovered are like the Film 'H&D Curve.

    I am at the other end of the scale, I teach a photography class, mostly digital but have about 30 odd film cameras, a 8x10, a 4x5, 4 x 120 film cameras and 28 x 35mm film cameras, most working but no darkroom.Most of the 35mm cameras come from Vinnies where I volunteer, the darkroom was under construction under my house but some torn ligaments in my leg has brought it to a screaming halt, 4 months ago ( what idiot said exercise classes were good for you?). I have 3x b and w photo enlargers, a colour enlarger and equipment , hopefully in a few months I can get back to work on it, I am looking forward to developing film and photos.

    Craig -- so sorry to read about the Hold UP in your Darkroom building -- if you were 'Nearer' i could develop B&W films for you and you could collect the negs !

    Thanks for the offer, like anything worth while patience is a virtue. In the mean time I shall continue to collect more bits and pieces for the darkroom.
