Digital BW, The Print

Martin,

I'm anxious to hear your experiences with the kammi fluid. I havn't
purchased any yet but would like to soon. I'm getting very good scans from
my PowerLook III just using the 4x5 holder. I find that 1200 dpi is more
than enough for inkjet sizes and holds up extremely well when I send off for
lightjets. But, I'm wishing for a 45 Ultra myself.

Peter,

I did buy a pack and I am using it with my Linoscan 1400 to scan 4x5
negatives at 1200 dpi. I do not see anything in the scans from the
UltraBase but I don't consider myself an expert in this either.

I have all the materials for wet mounting with Kami fluid but have
not tried it yet. When I do I will post a comparison with the
UltraBase.

Wish I had more scanner resolution. Someday a Polaroid 45 Ultra maybe.
