The prints, if anything, look better than with my conversions from color
-

As to the high-key...in brighter light it produces a result closer to
the image you're pointing to. In contrasty or low light, it tends to
produce a contrastier image.

B.D.:

How do the prints look, compared to the digital you have been using?

Why did you shoot those in high-key mode?  Maybe I'm misunderstanding
high-key, but I always thought it was when white tones predominated.
For example, I consider this to be high-key...

Or does the camera mode mean you're pointing a spot at the highest value
you care about?
