Thanks folks.I backed off on films like Portra
and Supra because i thought they were more designed
for the wedding or portrait outputs.I quess my
assumtions were wrong here.
If i go to one of these types of films do they
get sent out to the "pro"lab or will my 1 hour guy
be able to proccess and print.

David,

You might want to consider Agfa Optima II 400 - strong browns and
reds, fairly saturated. �The other I would try is Portra 400 VC. �I
would think that you would be looking for just a little more color zip
than the NC would provide.

Good luck,


Bruce Dayton
