Hi Boris

You're welcome old bean. I find it easier to scan slides, but that might be merely because Vuescan has more profiles for non-Kodak slide films than for print films. Nonetheless I scan both types of film. And Ed Hamrick advises his customers to set Vuescan to a Kodak equivalent if the proprietary profile is not in the list in Vuescan.

I use almost exclusively Fuji and Ilford films: Fuji Superia or Reala for print, Provia for slide; SFX Pan F, FP4 and HP5 for mono print. I have tried the new Tri-X from Kodak. I like ISO 100, 200 and 400 print films. However, as Moose so elegantly puts it, it is indeed distressing when your sharp 6x4" print expands to a slightly blurred or out-of-focus englargement.

[" WOW" when I worked on the Eurofighter project, some engineers told me that the switches in the undercarriage were "weight _off_ wheels"; the difference was, apparently , quite important. ;-)]

WOW Moose, WOW*.
This is what I have to say. Thank you for the complete explanation. So you and Chris are telling me that I suddenly started to worry about nothing. Just another bug from the list-slides, slides, your images are not worth if they are shot on anything else.
