They are also not the only lab to provide that service. I don't care for the results from Seattle Film Works back when I dealt with them -- quite a while now -- but they were/are not the only lab to provide that service. I've used Dale Labs www.dalelabs.com several times and liked the results. Bottom line is, you can get slides made from negatives ... it's not a matter of shooting a special film, it's a matter of dealing with a lab that offers that service.
