You don't say what you're shooting with, but slide film does not allow for mistakes and can be a very costly learning experience. Besides, with a cheap scanner it's difficult to get a decent scan. As to your streaking, it's not uncommon in roller transport processors. You will have to examine, perhaps try and clean the negs to know if it's scratching or crud. Check blank pieces to see if it is there. You should have bought the 10d. Yes, it's more money now, but you wouldn't have to buy film anymore. Plus you'd learn quickly about exposure. And you'd have a lot more control and options. I figure I've definitely paid for mine over the past year with lack of film and processing costs, not to mention the cost of a really good scanner. -- Jim Davis Nature Photography http://jimdavis.oberro.com Replies in plain text only please! * **** ******* *********************************************************** * For list instructions, including unsubscribe, see: * http://www.a1.nl/phomepag/markerink/eos_list.htm ***********************************************************
