Pardon this 'slightly off scuba topic', but least folks get confused, this
is NOT a new film.  It is a new print process. The implication being that
images taken UW w/ standard print film can have prints specially processed.
Another implication is one could take old negatives and have them reprinted
under the new process.

I agree w/ Bjorn and Mike, I think this is really for those not shooting
transparencies, the occasional shooter, the disposable cameras, available
light images, and those w/o digital means.

I think it was Mike who posted the news here.  I, also having heard of it,
posted on uw-photo.  The comment about "investing more time into a better
film" is right on. And another ("yeah, it's called Photoshop") is also true
(I use Photoshop 5.5).

Regarding a post on film, I find the new Fuji Provia 100 F to be as good, if
not better, than Velvia, and a stop faster.

Now back to your regularly scheduled threads ....
