What's the gray scale range that people are having problems with?...I'll
check it out thoroughly on my printers.

Sorry...I'm not a "real" photographer so Zone V or Zone VI doesn't mean
anything to me other than I should know what it is...and if I knew what it
was I would probably have better negatives...but now the D1x gives me an
instant histogram...so I'm afraid that I'm not destined to learn the zone
system...alas.
