Doug, you already know I’m impressed… nice to see a real engineer doing it up the best way he can. You definitely got an addiction to cameras… maybe I should introduce you to Dennis Gallagher, the engineer at my company…   Read more»

Can you get a ‘core charge’ back…or at least the silver that got dissolved during developing? :)Edward

8OI don’t know how many ounces but I feel it in the wallet when I go to process it!Doug
