Hi David,
You should be able to do POP fine with
digital negatives. With POP
processes, I think the only step that
people have trouble with is determining a
standard printing
time—which perhaps seems the antithesis of POP, where
you are
printing by inspection. However it is important to get a
printing time so you
can determine what density your negatives
require. The traditional method of
exposing until you get a standard
steptablet to merge at least two steps
doesn't work very well,
since the self masking prevents this merging of steps. But
you can
still use a step tablet and by examining the darkest print steps
decide which gives you an acceptable "black".
Good
luck,
