Here is the secret: The negative and positive that you get
from Type 55 film do not have quite the same exposure
characteristics. You can either expose for a good positive,
in which case the negative is slightly thin, or over expose
the print slightly in order to get a that will print well.
Unfortunately, you can't get both a good negative and
a good positive from the same exposure.
