Right on! Welcome to the dark world. ;) If you are noticing more grain than was evident in prints made by another lab, it could be a number of things: 1) the film could be overprocessed. Compare the new negs to some that appear to be finer-grained, and see if your new negs are thicker. If they are, reduce your agitation or shorten your processing time or lower your temperature. 2) your enlarger head and lens combo may be giving you a much sharper picture than you were getting from that lab, the downside being that the grain becomes emphasized. 3) I had a third possibility in my head, but I've forgotten it. Someone else can probably come up with one. :) -Aaron - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List. To unsubscribe, go to http://www.pdml.net and follow the directions.
