Think he finally lays this issue to rest...hopefully >once and for all! Well, Howard Bond is a good photographer. And I've seen some of his original prints in a local bed and breakfast here in Southern Oregon. But, I don't think he's all that. And anyone who claims to put such this issue to rest once and for all is fooling themselves. There are too many good photographers who disagree. It's not that one or the other is better, but finding which one works for you. I personally have never had problems with sharpness with diffusion enlargers, and considering the lack of spotting it gives a printer, I can't see why anyone would use condensers, except to not have to pay to upgrade an enlarger. ========================== Eric Welch Grants Pass Daily Courier
