Digital BW, The Print

Hi:
My name is Phil Wayner, I am the one who wrote the Kodalith film 
question.  I am sorry that I did not sign my name , this was my first 
post to this forum.

As for using Kodalith film, I am a retired pro with over 64 years of 
photographic experience, and have used Kodalith in the manner you 
wrote about, Tom.  I have also done sabbatier work with Kodalith using 
as high as eight generations to make registered tone line prints.   
But my question stated that the Kodalith only had one density, maximum 
density, thereby making it an extremely high contrast negative capable 
of only producing  black and white on the print.  

Just so you do not think I am just an old fuddy duddy I have been into 
computers since 1984.  I have taught photography for over thirty 
years, at present have 18 students in the US and several foreign 
countries.   Still photographing using 35, 2 1/4, and 4 X5.  Have a 
complete darkroom including analyzer, densitometer, controlled temp 
water supply, an Omega 5500 with a register carrier, and a Thomas 
safelight.  I process B&W, color negs, slides, Ilfochrome, color neg 
and slide prints, also make slide copies.

My last job was as a medical photographer in a hospital.  

I hope this makes up for my lack of signature.  Thanks for the 
response.

Phil Wayner
