Take a digital photo if you can and send it to the extension agent. That might be good enough.

My tomatoes have just the leaf spots and some dying vines, but none of the other late blight signs, like greasy stems and fungus spots. What else looks like it, so I don't panic?? Some three hundred plants, 90% heirloom seeds.

Call your county extension office, and find out whether they'll come identify it.

In my county, they'll be right out, will give you a good idea right away, and can run a test if necessary. They're apparently faster about this in some counties than in others.
