Are You Experienced?

Lots of thoughts on Velvia100 & LC-A. Yes, this means it's here and has been put through it's first roll. Auto-doubles and xpro. If there's a button to push, I have a tendancy to want to push it, hard.

1. Fresh Velvia is much different than expired Velvia.
2. Tungsten light increases the colorization effect of cross-processing drastically.
3. I can write a levels adjustment that semi-accurately produces images that one would see on a lab print, if one were so inclined to order prints from the lab instead of scanning themselves. I base this on experience and research, i.e. hours in front of flickr. A machine is a machine is a machine, mostly. Different chemisty affects it in different ways. Your mileage may vary.
4. The LC-A is fun but might be scratching the lowers thirds.
5. No need to push with 100, freshly doubled. I would push 50 though, shot at 400, in a heartbeat, just to see it.
6. The LC-A should have an 800 setting, just because I said so. Apparently the (+) version has higher ASA's.
   
7. Initial testing passes. Might wield this tonight at the John Vanderslice show. You should go.

Ok then. Let's see if we can move the images under now...
