The only problem I can see with it is that the film is destroyed by the process. Right now, their resolution is a low, but I expect they will improve on that quite rapidly. This might be where photofinishing is going. One of the things mentioned in the article is that there is zero liquid effluent discharge from the process. This is the sort of thing that the environmental people will be looking at quite closely, I expect. William Robb - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
