Dr Williams: Thanks for the explanation and advice. The set-up I showed does work, and seems to work fairly well, but I have no idea how much better it could be with a phototube on top. >From your explanation, I would think lots, which I find intriguing. Regarding why large format, it's because I am more interested in it than I am in microphotography, and hence would buy an 8x10 for landscapes and portraits before an expensive piece of equipment for micro work. However, if I could get a phototube for the Leitz at a reasonable cost, I would certainly consider that. You mentioned a "Nightingale's". I presume this is an online seller? If so, can you supply a URL to me? Thanks William Robb
