Pyro Negatives Good for Scanning?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Digital photography technique : One Thread

How do pyro-developed negatives compare to other B/W negs for scanning purposes? My guess is that the stained image won't translate as well as with other developers. Correct or not?

Mike,

Excellent question. It turns out that pyro negatives scan quite well on today's scanners. View Camera magazine recently had some examples in their last issue that you should check out.
