I just ordered some APH lith, size 16 by 20, for $2 per sheet, or 1/4th
the price per square inch of the BPF. I would suppose then that for
Hamish to order from the US would still save money. There is of course
the problem now of xrays in transit, tho Freestyle may have some influence
with the postal powers that be.... Otherwise, I suggest going digital. I
plan to do that when my brain is sufficiently molded. Spent today at a
Dan Burkholder digital negative workshop & absolutely guarantee that,
given the equipment and -- call it the sitzfleish, or endurance through
the learning curve -- the BETTER NEGATIVE is available digitally.
cheers,
Judy
