You're right Jimmy, but I've also seen some nice 2nd generation shots. Heck, N172s are photos of photos. A professional photographer working in a studio can produce a very nice picture that may be deceptive to a casual onlooker, esp. if the edges are trimmed down as they might be for a newspaper use. And one can also produce a nice sharp image years later from an original negative. That's why one does not confidently buy a high grade Ruth Ray-O-Print without the negative.
