News: Projector, PDI Slideshows, 5 Towns
Andrew Charlesworth used the X-Rite on the club’s projector last night and I was surprised how it lowered the output and with it any possible criticism of the image being over-bright. Mono workers in particular will be pleased with the tonal rendition. We’ll see what you all think on the first evening back. Many thanks […]

5 Towns
A much improved Alsager CC won the Alan Challinor Trophy last night in a field which was richly stocked with quality images.

PDI Knock Out
Members submitted up to six new images. Ian Whiston assembled these into Breeze Browser and displayed them, randomised, in pairs. We all vote for the “best” of the pair. Flawed, of course, because two top quality images can appear together and one has to go, two poorer ones and still one stays in. But, it […]
