Hi!  Will pyro stained negs scan ok?  Does the stain matter when scanned or
do scanners compensate? Best, Rich

  As is often the case I realized I had left something out as soon as I
clicked the send button.
  Pyro developers have two desirable qualities, one is that they tend to
suppress aerial fog and another is that they are reported to be pretty good
desensitizers, both useful for tray developing.
  Note that aerial fog is fog caused by exposure to the air during
development. This is NOT the intense stain caused when pyro is allowed to
dry in the air.
