I know even the better lab I use uses spotting inks to spot out the scratches they put on the negs in processing them - most labs certainly don't bother. If I had time, I'd process them myself and scan them, then I'd take the CDR to the lab and never let them touch the film! One lab had me convinced my camera was scratching the film - until I shot a roll of B&W and prcesed it myself. Bingo! No scratches... Rob Rob Geraghty [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://wordweb.com
