Guest bwcolor Posted March 16, 2009 Share #1 Â Posted March 16, 2009 Advertisement (gone after registration) I would appreciate a recommendation for a very good quality film processing lab for my M7 negatives, and for scanning them for my use in printing on my ink jet printer. I live in the boondocks of northern Michigan, and there is no such service here, so I would be dealing by phone and mail. I am seeking high quality work.

ai1 Posted March 16, 2009 Share #2 Â Posted March 16, 2009 I use Woodward Camera in Birmingham. MI. (248-642-1985, 3501 Woodward Avenue Birmingham, MI). I do not know if they are set up for mail order. They do a more than credible job on C-41, E6 and B&W. They can do a digital contact sheet and, if you want, leave the negatives uncut (my preference).

junglehs Posted March 16, 2009 Share #4 Â Posted March 16, 2009 didn't Ken Rockwell mention this supposedly "awesome" service at NCPS? Does anybody have experience with them? I am in the NYC area and looking for a lab for b&w developing (Tri-x400) with a good scan. A local lab would be great for me but everything here is so expensive.

martinb Posted March 27, 2009 Share #7 Â Posted March 27, 2009 Advertisement (gone after registration) Riccis, Have you tried the 40mb Frontier scans? I love shooting film, but hate scanning and scanners. I require 50mb files, but from good Frontier scans it's possible to interpolate a little..

Â Martin: Â I get medium scans (about 15 Mb file) and have printed beautiful 20x30s from it without any interpolation... The high res scans (40 Mb) are, IMHO, overkill for me. Why do you require 50 Mb files if you don't mind me asking? Â Cheers, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinb Posted March 27, 2009 Share #9 Â Posted March 27, 2009 Riccis, My agency wants at least 50mb. For personal use 15-20mb would be just fine as I prefer smaller prints and larger scans don't contain a lot more resolution, just magnified grain really.
