John et al-
Right you are- I am in NC and the humidity is not too dry, then again, I do
use Photo-flo 200 at about half the recommended dilution, and it could be
that it is somewhat hydroscopic and absorbs moisture, at least enough to
prevent a wicked curl.
I wonder then if the distortion of the image from that great a shrinkage
might make other discussions about the accuracy of the film's ability to
record what you see accurately, moot!
Perhaps Ilford has a thicker base, anyone actually measured them?
Dan
