Message text written by INTERNET:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >There's no reason why you should scratch negs in an enlarger. Any time you position a neg in the film carrier, it should be lifted by the edged and dropped in place before the carrier is closed. Never, ever pull film through the carrier. Paul Stenquist<
no reason doesn't mean accidents don't happen. i can't remember the last time i scratched a negative in a carrier, it has been so long, but nonetheless, i don't do it anymore. every time film is handled, there is a chance for damage, even with your own equipment. Herb....
