I've been doing a little testing with it lately...my regular lab says they won't push C-41, so I just underexposed it to see how it would look. It's pretty good at 800, you start to seriously lose shadow detail and get some skanky grain at 1600. I'm looking for a lab that will actually push it - may lab says I need to find a dip and dunk processor, though I'm not sure if that's true or not. > > Any tips regarding photographing at our big moment would be much > appreciated. As this was my sister, I missed the actual delivery but got some decent shots before and after the fact: http://www.bigdayphoto.com/tom/derek/ The super contrasty ones at the bottom are Delta 400 at 800...they print very nicely though they're hard to scan. And for those of you who care, here he is 6 months later: http://www.bigdayphoto.com/tom/derek/042902/22a.jpg http://www.bigdayphoto.com/tom/derek/images/derek-510.jpg Christian and Paul, if you're still paying attention the last scan is typical of the dust problem they seem to have at Ace Photo. tv - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
