A visit to the M. C. Escher web site should get your vision back on track.

Use Ilford Delta 400 for shooting fine deep shadows and dork blacks. Works for me!

I love my 50mm lens best of all!

Frank, whats a dork black? Just curious.

Alex Taylor April 13th, 2003 12:49 PM

Hahahaha...

Dork blacks are dorky blacks. One guy in another forum used to write: "the Panasonic MX8 is for shooting for fine deep shadows and dark blacks," about 200 times, probably even more. However, one time he spelled "dark" incorrectly: "dorks." So the line went: "for shooting fine deep shadows and dork blacks." Anyway, I picked up on it and so did others, and now this line has become well-known in describing high contrast shadows and dark blacks. We all know that blacks are dark, whites are bright, and grays are somewhere in-between. Anyways, here's that fella's website:

Thanks Jeff
 
I checked out the site: cool.

Did you ever see the episode of the Simpsons where the family was appartment hunting (after losing the house) and one of the places they looked at was Escher's Relativity...genius!

Frank Granovski April 15th, 2003 06:46 PM

No, I didn't see that one. Oh, well. I'm depressed now.

Perhaps this will tide you over
