Hi, Because there are excellent labs here that can do amazing things with digital file, my answer would be "Yes." In fact, I'm considering doing just that at some point.
The workflow would go something like this: mediocre negs corrected in PS, and converted to negs at the lab in order to make silver B&W prints. results should be interesting, and, if satisfactory, a way to go at some point wrt making high quality silver prints. shel Boris Liberman wrote: > Hi! > > >Let's say you shoot 6+Mp digital. > >It's convenient and provides fast results. > >But -- you still want negs for darkroom work, > >whether 35mm or medium format. > >Would you be willing pay for the optional extra service > >of getting a set of negs back from the lab along with > >your prints? > > Collin, judging from my modest experience, I'd rather stay away from > local lab as far as I could get.
