D310 tint answers, solutions, theories, challenge

Very interesting.

I only have 2 D31o's:

Delmas, Los Angeles, appears to be Green tint
Brashear, Vernon, Gray tint

Thanks for the posts Patrick and Steve. The Berry Patrick posted is what I consider Gray...I have one that looks just like this. Maybe it causes other people to be green with envy.

The Delmas that Steve posted looks to be the green tint that I indicated. The Brashear does look grayish, but would have to see in person (the scan is a little blurry). As Mark M. mentioned in his post on the other D310 thread, variations in tone are definitely seen. But if you have them in front of you you can definitely see the different gray and green tints.

Hope to see/hear about more out there...help me fine tune my theory.

Pulled the Brashear. It is green tint. Poor scan.

Thanks Steve for double-checking the Brashear. Thought for a second that my theories were on shaky ground right off the bat.

Now anyone else out there with D310's--let me know what you have (green/gray), either on the board or email/private message. I think Americans need and demand to know exactly what tints they can expect when buying a large size Pacific Biscuit card

My one and only PCB (but I wouldn't mind more). Looks grey (like it's supposed to) to mine aged eyeballs.

I used to own the Weaver, which was green-tinted.

Thanks David and Bruce...two more that help out. The Lewis card is one of my favorites, and it points out one of the aspects of this set that is pretty neat...the smaller size full body pose with a ton of solid color background. The cards that are like this in the set are very distinct in my eyes (and indeed the Lewis is gray to my eyes too). And Bruce's former Weaver is just another notch in the green tint belt, like my theory says it would be. I could only dream of Weaver, or yes, be a dream Weaver. Ouch.

Keep them coming...I would love to think I have stumbled upon the perfect green/gray tint solution.
