Yup.  I've spent quite a bit of time at Graywolf's site.  Since we
both own Graphics, I found it rather enlightening that someone out
there is actually using one as it was intended.  Imagine that!  Using
a press camera as as press camera!  Now I just need some flash bulbs.

I will.  I've recently moved to a rather rural area in southern PA and
no longer have access to a dark room or a local B&W lab.  We left St.
Louis to get away from the hustle, and now I find that I've taken
quite a few aspects of city life for granted.  <g>  Looks like I'll be
mailing my film out.  I may switch to color process B&W for the time
being.

Good to hear it.  I don't mind the automagical wunderplastiks so long
as I can shoot manually as needed.  But the *ist I bought last year
for my wife has a been a sore disappointment in that area.  (I
apparently didn't do my research.  That crippled mount sucks.)
