How do I calibrate my photographic process
Where do I start. I want to get a better grip on my whole photographic
process. How do I go about calibrating my camera, development and printing process? |

But additionally Beyond the Zone System is another good reference written by Phil Davis. |

A lot has happened since Ansel Adams. As I recall, the specifics about
films and chemicals etc are outdated. I still have the Adams trilogy and enjoy its insights. Relative to b&w film development, these two links were helpful to me for calibrating that part of the process: http://www.apogeephoto.com/mag2-6/mag2-6mfcalib.shtml Part 1 http://www.apogeephoto.com/mag2-6/mag2-8calib2.shtml Part 2 PSsquare "Morton Klotz" wrote in message ...
