Glad to hear that Paul. I intend to shoot my 6x7 this weekend(our Thanksgiving) but it might only be B&W. The only lab in this area, that i know of, that could do C41 and E6, of the 120 size is no longer here.
At least the B&W i can do at home, when th emood hits. LOL Dave Quoting Paul Stenquist <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > I did it. I shot film today.
