Mechanical slop is a big part of it -- minilabs are not designed to give you the sharpest print, but to give you the fastest print. Also, colour photographic materials have a certain degree of softness to them because of the way that the colour is formed. -Aaron - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
