I shot myfirst roll of CN last month and was happy with it.The lab i have dealt with
forthelast4
years knows how to proccess this and dida good job.I did as Stan suggested and treated
the
4x6's as proofs and then decided which to print as colour and which as B & W.The lab i
use
is great.They all know how to use the equipment and are photographers themselves.As
long
as i tell them ahead of time iof i did something to a frame they are prepared to
adjust with out
time lost

The guys at my corner store do just fine with either. They say the Select is
a bit easier to work with since it is designed for color or colour paper CN
works better with B&W paper which , of course, is very rare in machine-print
stores. My suggestion: Treat the 4x6 prints as proofs, don't worry too much
about the color or colour ting; just have the lab pay more attention when
you get your final print(s).
