Philip. P/S is very impressive in this situation, had to read up, to understand the many alternatives. Your description is accurate.
Non straight verticals always reminds me of the first time I was let loose to take a pic, local library, 10x8 camera, under the cloth, grid lines on the screen, rise and tilt front, no excuses. Took me about an hour in the darkroom to get all (virtually) straight, paper easel propped up unevenly to compensate for my mistakes, 4/5 sheets of paper, a disaster, to get a properly exposed print. Final print satisfactory, then I did not have the sense to copy it, in case we had repeat orders, which we did get. My then boss, did not tell me to do this, he came back at night and did it, taught me a few lessons, never made the same error again. Happy days. Ed.
