Carlos et al. I just received a whole bunch of 35mm and 120 Fuji Velvia that expired in 2004. It was supposedly kept in the fridge most of the time, but I am not sure if it's worth the bother given that Dwayne's in Kansas charges about $12 for processing a roll these days (very fast & professional service though!). My 2nd question concerns the quality of the 5.6/500 mm lens for the SL66. I have been looking for one for a whiole and may purchase the HFTversion next week. How much difference in quality is there between the non-HFT and HFT version? Does a high quality (95mm!) multicoated B&W UV filter added to the non-HFT front element make up for the difference?
