Glenn, Judy et al,
I agree the Freestyle film is useful in making enlarge negatives. The problem
I have found is if you low the contrast enough with diluted Dektol you lose
the shadow detail. In those cases I end up making three (or sometimes more)
negatives ; one for the high tones, a second for mid-range tones and a third
for the low tones. These are than printed in registration with the
appropriate pigment gum concentrations.

Since this film is so much less expensive than Kodak's duplicating film, it
not a problem to make the series of negatives.
