First, a big thanks to Jeff Blyth for the G307 thermal processing idea. I've found it to work great! When processing a number of DCG exposures in a series, the manual steps of G307 processing can be tedious and interfere with throughput. Additionally, unless careful attention is paid, the manual tim...
