Dan,

thanks so much for your comments...
I have had a few 'heated' threads over the last year regarding B&W shot with the M8, as an example.I own an M8 but gave up on getting pleasing black and whites from it.
Regardless of which PP method I chose the results were unsatisfactory to me.
I went back to film and got what I think is good for me.
Since moving to digital I have never shot so much film

I envy those who can achieve great B&W with digital. I have seen one or two good examples on the web, but really 1 or 2 from thousands of images.
Film remains for me the medium for black and white...

thanks again for your feedback

andy
