The claimed Voynich page

Do we have a higher quality copy of the Yale microfilm?

Seconded! The lighter areas on the text could also explain some of the very interesting glyph choices, such as that on the first line. Also, the lack of tail on the l glyphs line up with a lack of visibility on the microfilm. A higher quality scan would help.

       
       

I found this Japanese site that provides B/W images of (I think) the MS microfilm and they are of good quality

I don't believe that is the same microfilm image, surely? One has significant fading in areas and this one doesn't. There is also what appears to be a square around the text, as if composited onto the image. Perhaps a clearer image of the text imposed upon the microfilm image? Or perhaps enhanced for the text areas?
