The hi-res would definitely be better for any size print. However,
it's not very high resolution for 120 film, so you won't be taking
full advantage of the medium format 6400 x 4800 would be more in
keeping with the size of the negative.

Hi all.
Film question.
Blacks cameras can do B&W developing and scanning of 120 film. I just
talked to the closest store and i can get a roll developed for $7.50
and scanned at low res for $0.45 each. They send it out to a lab, were
i have no idea.
Question.
The low res is something like 1600 x 1200, more or less i forgot to
jot it down.
The high res, for an additional $0.40 per frame is around 3200 x 2400
more or less.
The higher res ~should~ be better for at least an 8x10, should it
not.??
I have 4-5 rolls to do and scanning seems like a better way to go,
rather than getting developed, a contact sheet then worry about
prints. This way i can see which, if any would make a good print, do
the adjustments my self and send off for prints, or do them here.
