Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 02-09-2010 07:06 PM                        Well, thanks for providing an explanation of what I fell for in your post, Mr. Cryptic... unless it was you who fell for something.  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 02-09-2010 07:18 PM                     I was waiting for someone like Louis to comment on that... ya know ya change the density, angle, and sharpness just slightly and anyone can fall on that one... . Of course the part I said about estar film and sprockets is true though...

John Seems to think I did for some reason.  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 02-09-2010 08:14 PM                     I'll bet that at first John fell for it!  |  IP: Logged Monte L Fullmer Film God Posts: 8367 From: Nampa, Idaho, USA Registered: Nov 2004 posted 02-09-2010 09:40 PM                     quote: Mark Gulbrandsen about estar film and sprockets is true though... ...looks like foxhole prockets are on their way out then. Best get converted over to VKF's so they can handle this added wear then.  |  IP: Logged John Wilson Film God Posts: 5438 From: Sydney, Australia.
