By optical I mean shining a light through a negative to get a print
rather than priting a scanned negative from a digital file.

Thanks, but
There's no optical process - just chemistry (film development only).

Emne: Re: Film and Development
Jens,
I have noticed this too. I dont think pro-labs help much either, it
depends on the lab. Personally I have found a lab near me that works
for me and just stick with them. I get the impression that with the
move to digital, the old optical process is not getting the attention
it deserves. Perhaps it is a skills shortage, or most likely people
cant be bothered to do a good job. My opinions. Feel free to differ at
will.

I am getting the impression, that is is getting harder to get decent
film
development these days. Is this true? I know my digital images are
very
sharp due to the smaller format/better DOF. But I also know that film
images
can be extreemly sharp as well. But I'm getting bad films back from my
small
dealers lab these days.
Is this a common tendency?
Which films are the sharpest (200-1600 ASA) today (135 and 120) ?
Do we have to send our films to pro labs to get decent result?
All the best
Jens
