The only problem with this is that PhotoNet CD (the standard CD service in a lot of places) has a standard resolution of 1024x1536, which is not enough to give you good prints. There's a high res. version of the PhotoNet CD that gives 2000x3000, I believe, which will allow for an 8x10 image at 250dpi. The only moral here is that you need to ask specifically about the resolution when you drop your film off for scanning, as you may otherwise wind up with images that are only suitable for viewing on a monitor. chris - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
