I have not so I don't know what they are like. According to the cross-section shown on the data sheets they have a sub emulsion anti-halation coating like color transparency films. If this is the case they would not need the pigmented support and might not be using it. Perhaps someone on this list has some actual processed film and could look. If the base is clear it should work well for reversal. --- Richard Knoppow Los Angeles, CA, USA dickburk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx --- Rollei List - Post to rollei_list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx - Subscribe at rollei_list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'subscribe' in the subject field OR by logging into www.freelists.org - Unsubscribe at rollei_list-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'unsubscribe' in the subject field OR by logging into www.freelists.org - Online, searchable archives are available at //www.freelists.org/archives/rollei_list
