...is possible! I've always wanted to print my large format in-camera negatives that were initially intended for gelatin silver. Up until now, I've always just made either a copy negative with a more appropriate DR, or a digital negative. I was quite please to see that with a little work, printing with these lower DR negatives is possible. Check it out!

Cool! Especially with dichromate there's so much flexibility to the process. I tried the same with DAS, but so far haven't managed to accommodate low contrast negatives as well as with dichromate.

Also, pigment load really is a major/powerful variable indeed. Your video aptly demonstrates this.

Beautiful prints
