I used to do that as well, photographing art for a friend who sent the transparencies to galleries, and it's good to hear that you have found a film suited to the purpose. Can I ask, what sort of light do you use? I ended up filtering photoflods- this was years ago, because the artist did not like the rendering of strobes, even if they were filtered for Uv- if not, some of the artwork 'pholoresced' and the color could change in some areas! Still, it was a challenge, and if I do it again, I will certainly try the EPN! Thanks!
