I once had a so-called minilab manager who almost processed a roll of Tri-X in C-41. She didn't believe me when I told her she shouldn't. Fortunately, between myself and the minilab rep she finally admitted she was wrong.

They probably ran it through C-41 chemicals. I've found that if you're not giving them color print film, it's best not to even talk to the person behind the counter. More often than not, especially at chain stores, they don't have a clue. Their employer should take a few minutes to explain to them that there is more than one type of film. They apparently can't be bothered to do this. Just put it in the envelope, make some notes like "Ektachrome! Process E-6" in the little box at the bottom, and drop it in the bin. If you have to hand it over to the guy behind the counter, make sure he knows that you don't want it processed there and that it should be sent out. -- Scott Loveless http://www.twosixteen.com/fivetoedsloth/ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
