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.
