I thought that this was just a name change for an improved Reala. Now, I get the impression that Reala is a pro film kept under refrigeration. Is that correct? How do its characteristics vary from those of Superia? Also, what is the function of the fourth layer on both of these?

The fourth layer in Reala is enough different from Superia that unless your shop has a unique channel for Reala they will have to pay attention when they print it. Or, it was printed on a Kodak 200 channel as it's universal, duh.:)) - -------Cut here---------- - -- Herbert Kanner kanner@acm.org 650-326-8204
