Exactly what I've found.  But each paper seems to have a sweet spot
that looks good, and it's easier to find on some papers than others.

I've tried a number of approaches and have yet to find the perfect one
- there's always some sort of trade-off.  Over all I'm quite happy
with K3-ABW.  Paul hinted once that he would like to make a toned
grayscale set that would work in the ABW mode.  THAT would be really
nice...


Regards,
Clayton
