Valid points. Still, a black image is a black
image, whether it be on digital or film.
You really have to pay for quality digital
processing programs such as Adobe. Irfanview is
neat but it lacks the full range of features.
I already HAVE the darkroom stuff and the
expertise to process and print. But even I,
magician though I be, cannot make a blank frame print a picture!
